What the Jackdaw Saw

By Julia Donaldson About · Illustrated by Nick Sharratt About

The jackdaw wants all his friends to come to his party, but when he calls out his invitation the animals just touch their heads. Why won’t they answer? And what do their actions mean? Luckily a brown owl can help him with the puzzle! This book about sign language features Julia Donaldson’s famously wonderful rhymes and a catchy chorus. It was created by Julia in collaboration with a group of children from the charity Life and Deaf (www.lifeanddeaf.co.uk) which helps deaf children to explore their identities through poetry, film, performance and art.
