BOOK: BOOK in American Sign Language (ASL) names the printed page-turner, physical or otherwise. The video and animated demonstration below show the sign.


Where does BOOK come up in conversation?
BOOK belongs to school talk, library trips, and bedtime routines. Reading is a strong thread in Deaf education, and conversations about books, favorite authors, and what you are reading now are everyday territory. Expect it to surface in classroom instructions as well, since opening and closing books is the rhythm of a lesson.
It appears early, in Lesson 7 of the challenge.
