Can Bears Ski?: 1
Author: Raymond Antrobus
Format: Paperback
Recommended for ages 3+
The debut children's book from Ted Hughes Award-winning poet Raymond Antrobus follows a father and son coming to terms with deafness. Boy Bear can only feel Dad Bear's footsteps through the floor and catches mere fragments of what his teacher and friends say, while a puzzling question keeps returning: "Can bears ski?" With Dad's support he visits an audiologist, gets hearing aids and finally understands what everyone has been asking.
Antrobus draws on his own experience to explore a deaf child's isolation and the many ways love can be shared. This edition includes an illustrated BSL alphabet.
