Jenny Froude's youngest child was deafened by meningitis at five months old. New communication skills were needed, and sign language provided the necessary lifeline. Here, she shares her insights into family life with a deaf child.
Industry Reviews
This book is a letter of love and faith from a woman whose son's deafness at first overwhelmed then inspired her. It is a sensitive account of the ramifications of deafness for her son and his success in coping with it. -- Rt Hon Lord Ashley of Stoke Professionals who work with deaf children should read this book and refer to it often. The arguments for the communication approach are clearly presented. But that aside, the insights into family life with a deaf child are invaluable. -- Jackie Parsons, Teacher in Charge of Lighthouse Sign Support Resource, Guildford Grove Primary School.
