                           The Lets Learn! series of books was created for the children of Ladakh.
                           While your children are laughing at the improbable situations our imaginary
                           Ladakhi friends get in, and out of, they are learning the love of reading
                           and important health information.
                           And all of our books support curricular topics.

This book introduces a new language called Sign Language to Ladakh. It is the system of gestures and facial expressions that deaf and
hearing impaired people use to speak to each other. This sign language was developed by the children, hostel parents and teachers at
Chushot and hearing impaired youth and adults in Leh. The book has a companion guide and movie, which detail over 200 important
Ladakhi words in sign language.

Using the story, talk to your students, clients or hearing impaired children about communication. Spend time exploring the dictionary
in movie and book formats, and then talk to each other in sign language! We would be pleased to hear from you with suggestions,
changes and new words for the 2009 signing dictionary and movie.

The Lets Learn! Team: Rev. Konchok Phandey, Tsering Stanba, Dorjay Raftan, Jigmat Dadul, Tashi Stanzin,
Rinchen Namgyal and Cynthia Hunt. Special thanks to the young people and hostel parents at the Chushot
Hostel, to Shariff and his family, and to Kate, Eileen and Melanie and their BC Children's Hospital Team.
