EZ American Sign Language Barron Easy Way David A Stewart EdD Elizabeth Stewart Lisa M Dimling PhD Jessalyn Little MEd Books Reviews

• If you are looking to do this mainly on your own outside inside conventional class this absolutely was the wrong book for you. If that is your situation, look at Lifeprint . Com
  And check out videos walking you through research on language acquisition. Bottom line, this book follows a format that many of us are familiar with from high school language classes. It is over burdened with the grammar at the start and goes through the sentences that are not reflective of how the language is used. These types of approaches typically lead to frustration and not learning meaningful information.
  
  My biggest complaint really are the dialogue created to help you practice. Many of them are written in a fashion that is not consistent with ASL structure. Often they are overly wordy, missing how succinct and elegant the language is.
• The book itself might be good but I got the kindle edition and hate it. Its very difficult to make the sign pictures large enough for me to see them and you can't print anything out so book is totally useless for me.
• I recommend this book to all my friends who are serious about ASL, in particular those who are learning online and need a more formal grammar supplement to go along with their less formal learning. The principles of ASL grammar are clearly described and frequently repeated in examples, helping the student to absorb the ideas. Still pictures aren't really enough on their own, so it's best to combine this book with classroom or video instruction to understand the images, but the book helps students learn how to adapt the vocabulary they learn online to create grammatically correct phrases and stories. The grammar presented is ASL, not SEE, making this book much more trustworthy than most on the market. Examples of topics covered include classifiers, sentence structure, asking questions, negation, and time concepts.
• This is the book I needed for my ASL 1 class in college. It has great information and is very easy to use. Includes signs and the ASL grammar rules in a easy to remember format. It also has information about Deaf culture, like how to get people's attention, interactions, etc. It is a must have book if you are learning to sign.
• There are a lot of good signs in this set, great for use as a tool to learn ASL. I would not recommend attempting to learn it without taking a course, however. You may be able to teach yourself a few basic signs, but there is a lot more to signing than simply knowing a few words. I think instead I'll hunt around for a more comprehensive sign language course, although I may still use these to help me practice.
• Bought this book in the edition and was very satisfied with its teaching. One point about it though, I was disappointed . The "Master signs" are almost impossible to see. The pictures are in "miniature" size and hard to see. I was still interested in this book, so I bought the Book also from an Vendor (Jersey Ashore) and it is just perfect. I am still reading/studying it and it is one of the best books on ASL I have found and I have many. John R
• I received E-Z, American Sign language within a few days of ordering and cannot seem to put down the book. As a beginner to ASL, I am taking online classes with signing online to learn ASL and this book is the book of choice for class. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. So if anyone is contemplating purchasing a book, this is the one, even if you are learning on your own. Easy to follow, with lots of pictures and quizzes to sharpen your understanding.
  Good luck.
• I use this book for ASL (level 3) and the lessons are easy to understand. It does a great job of giving some background to the sign as well as sections about technology, history, and much more. For the classroom, this book cannot be beat!
