Hearing Loss and Deafness. An Annotated Bibliography of Children's Books about Hearing Loss, Deafness, and Hearing Impaired People. Have You Ever Wondered About...?
Oldman-Brown, Deborah
The annotated bibliography lists children's books about hearing loss, deafness, and hearing-impaired persons. The first section lists books about Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan, Keller's teacher. In section 2, each of the fiction entries features at least one major character with hearing impairment. Section 3 contains non-fiction books about hearing, hearing impairment, sign language, and biographies of hearing-impaired children and adults. All entries include the following information: bibliographic citation, suggested reading levels, a description of the story or content, and information about illustrations and photographs. Seventeen books at the preschool, lower elementary, and upper elementary level are recommended that present positive views of deaf people and provide accurate information about hearing impairments. A supplement describes instructional resources (both print and non-print) about hearing loss and deafness for use with hearing children. (CL)
