About this Item
Title
- Ann Clare LeZotte: National Book Festival 2021
Summary
- Ann Clare LeZotte discusses "Show Me a Sign" (Scholastic), a riveting story inspired by the true history of a thriving deaf community on Martha's Vineyard in the early 19th century. This book explores ableism, racism and colonialism, answering the call to dig deep, examine core beliefs and question what is considered normal. Bonus content: Katie Noethe and Derrick Dodson from the Library's Accessibility Program introduce kids and families to their work and to a video on the importance of sign language to the deaf community filmed in 1913. Then, Pete Richey, a digital library specialist in the Library's Prints and Photographs Division, teaches viewers how to sign "I love reading" in American Sign Language.
