Summary
Have You Ever Seen...? An American Sign Language DVD/Book, the first in a series, is a whimsical children's book providing animated illustrations of 44 commonly used ASL handshapes in a collage-like fashion. The colorful illustrations also incorporate information about the Deaf community and its culture and language. The accompanying DVD includes an ASL version of the book, signed by native ASL users.
