British Signed Stories

Saturday July 26, 2008
The British Computer Society reports that ITV Signpost is working on developing a website that will present hundreds of children's stories in British sign language, with animation and text. This is ITV Signpost's contribution to the effort to improve the literacy skills of British deaf children.

Guide comment: Neat idea! Do we have anything like this yet, or planned, for the United States?

Why wait for ITV - check out www.mybslbooks.com, currently only 8 titles, but this is set to increase to nearly 40 UK and US titles by the end of October!
