‘my baby’s favourite books’
Rhyme and Sign Adventures – the story behind our BSL story books!
Our lovely signed stories began life way back in 2011.
We originally approached the big publishers to help us buy the UK / BSL rights to adapt existing popular children’s books. Sadly it wasn’t to be.
We didn’t give up but a new baby in 2012 meant that dreams were shelved for a while. Well, quite a long while actually and it was 2015 before we dug deep, found the courage to write the books ourselves with encouragement from our lovely customers and began the creative process.
The results have been outstanding.
Gorgeous picture books, packed with personality, that beg to be read over and over again. Enjoyed equally by little ones and their grown-ups throughout the UK (and beyond!), we couldn’t be more proud that our Rhyme and Sign Adventures have become ‘my baby’s favourite book’ in so many households.

The Perfect Addition!
what early years educators say…

what Speech and Language Therapists say…
‘These are lovely stories in their own right – but they are actually much more than that. There is lots of rhyme and repetition which are important for supporting language learning and developing vocabulary – plus the addition of key signs which enhances early literacy and learning.
You don’t need any signing experience to be able to use these books straightaway. They are accessible, enjoyable tales for all ages – from grandparents to babies – and they’ll all love to join in!’
Libby Hill, Consultant Speech and Language Therapist, Smarttalkers.

“Our Farmyard Friends is a captivating introduction to signing that had my children (4 1/2 and 18 months) hooked from first read.
Not only is it a delightful rhyme with engaging pictures it is a comprehensive enough guide for anyone completely new to signing to achieve mastery in just one or two read throughs.
My daughter was able to mirror back to me all the signs after just one telling and frequently uses them in other contexts.”

‘It has blown me away…. I literally don’t have the vocabulary for how emotional it makes me to know parents of signing children can have access to this – and wow, you’ve done it so, so well.’

‘This book is very interactive for children; not only because of the motor skills in signing with hands but also because it has a familiarity to it, like an old friend.
I love this book. If you are new to signing this book has what you need to start enjoying signing and storytelling and if you already sign then this compliments the fun you are already having together.’

I got this book – and Wow!
My son who is 5 loves it. I found that using the signs brought us both closer together and made the story come to life.
Amazing book. Highly Recommended isn’t a strong enough sentiment for it.
