Written by Elaine Ernst Schneider and Illustrated by Tom Dineen. This book is part of The Special Kids in School Series and is a must-have for every counselor, teacher, school nurse, parent, or caregiver.
This beautifully illustrated and fun-to-read storybook tells the story of Jacob, a kid living with a hearing impairment.Through Jacob’s story, readers learn about sign language, interpreters, hearing aids and speech therapy for kids with hearing impairments.
When read aloud, other children can start to identify why a peer with a hearing impairment may be treated differently and begin to empathize with the peer. In addition, children with a hearing impairment or children who have conditions that set them apart as being different begin to feel accepted and safe.
Book includes a Kid Quiz to reinforce new information and Ten Tips for Teachers to provide additional facts and ideas for teacher use.
