This storybook app features:

Incredible storytelling by Rosa Lee Timm, renowned Deaf performer, storyteller, and artist.

Original artwork is by internationally acclaimed Deaf artist, Yiqiao Wang.

Over 200 vocabulary words (signed and fingerspelled), and is based on VL2 research to support literacy development.

Fingerspelled words help young readers bridge the letters to words, and to the meaning and overall story structure.

Three modes to support reading development: WATCH, READ, and LEARN. In the WATCH mode, young readers get full ASL exposure through ASL storytelling with art and animations. (Enjoy it like you would enjoy a short TV episode!). READ mode features page-by-page sentence videos with highlighted vocabulary words, that has a video when tapped. The vocabulary videos show a word signed and fingerspelled. In LEARN mode, all the vocabulary words are listed in one place --- perfect for parents, siblings, family and friends learning new ASL signs and it's a great place for young readers to review their ability to comprehend and remember words/signs.

This story is developed by Tayla Newman, as a part of her Honors Capstone project at Gallaudet University.

We invite you to enjoy this storybook app, and the third installment in our The Baobab series!
