### 5/5 — A great book for kids!

*2014-09-07, version 6.0.7*

This app is great for children who can't read and just want to hear the story read to them. Every parent wants an educational app for their child to use and this app

### 5/5 — Well designed, useful, memorable, and fun

*2014-09-03, version 6.0.7*

I  love how the app enables you to remember the signs.  Our neice can often have a challenge communicating verbally and the signs helps me to build my relationship with her.

### 5/5 — More!

*2014-08-29, version 6.0.7*

My nine year old loves these stories. "Aw, they only have two. To be continued.... aw." We shall await release of future chapters so we can follow the adventures of both the human and animal characters. I just love how the author integrates learning sign. More chapters please!!!

### 5/5 — Great speech app!

*2014-08-27, version 6.0.7*

Sign me a story is a fun and educational app that provides functional signs. This app is great for kiddos learning sign language and also reading. The signs are highlighted in the story and demonstrated clearly. It applies to a wide range of kiddos and makes learning to sign fun and easy! I recommend it for anyone who's teaching kiddos how to sign.

Since the latest update, the app has improved significantly. It's added music and environmental noises--another great way to target speech (i.e. "What do you hear?" "What does a car sound like?"). 

It's a fun and educational app all around!

### 5/5 — Interesting, Engaging, and Useful

*2014-08-23*

This is a very fun app for users of all ages, with an interesting story, cute characters, and practical sign langauge. I definitely reccommend it to anyone interested in sign language. The update also adds a lot of well-needed stimulus

### 5/5 — This is awesome!

*2014-08-21, version 6.0.7*

What a clever way to get kids(and grown ups too!)excited about sign language! Cute story...and an even cuter "signer".

### 5/5 — Nice Stories!

*2014-08-09, version 6.0.7*

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2014-08-05, version 6.0.7*

I thought this was a fun story to follow, easy for kids, good sound effects! Enjoyed the fact that kids signed. I'm definitely looking forward to following more stories. I enjoyed the music and interesting new features.

### 1/5 — Bad ending

*2013-05-27, version 001*

Why would you end a kids book with a dog getting attacked by wolves? Pay to find out what happens to the poor puppy. Not cool. Also had problems with the book just skipping around for no reason I would end up back at the start of the book. As far as the sign language it was nice to touch the word and see the sign, but there was only 3 touchable words in the whole book. This book had potential but with their marketing strategy of trying to scare little kids to sell a book I will never download something from them again.

### 3/5 — Interesting Concept

*2014-02-19, version 5.2*

I have no deaf students, but my other students enjoyed watching and learning the signing of the words.

### 3/5 — Very Different App!

*2014-02-17, version 5.2*

This app had an interesting addition to a cute story, sign language was demonstrated for some of the words. The demonstrations were given by a young child, and that was an added bonus. I wish that there were demonstrations for more of the words, and the story was a little long. My students enjoyed practicing the sign language.

### 3/5 — Great....but...

*2014-02-14, version 5.2*

Delightful story and the sign language addition is wonderful.  But not thrilled with having to buy an app to finish the story.

### 4/5 — Nice sign language application

*2014-02-26, version 5.2*

What a great concept for teaching sign language. The story is a little long, but to incorporate learning signs in context of the story is logical and should be a great hook for learners. I’m not sure how happy I would be to know I had to purchase part 2 to find out the rest of the story, but I think it would be worth $1.99. Keep up the good work!

### 4/5 — Great idea… more work needed...

*2014-02-26, version 5.2*

A really great idea for an app and is one of the best ones I've seen like it, but there's still some work to do before it could get a 5.  It could use more signs associated with the story and there is a bit of a delay in between when they click on the sign and when the video plays.  Not sure if that could be sped up, but that would be ideal.

### 4/5 — Thanks for a cute and educational story!

*2014-02-26, version 5.2*

This is a great app for sign users/learners.  Thanks!

### 4/5 — Useful app

*2014-02-19, version 5.2*

Excellent way for children to learn signing & practice reading at same time. My 8 year-old granddaughter found the signing tutorial very intriguing. The first story offers signs for 26 words. Storyline & characters are marginal, leaving much to be desired. The apps strength is its primary objective of teaching sign language. Beneficial to classroom use. Worth the purchase. Suitable for grades 1-6.

### 4/5 — Nice signing app

*2014-02-16, version 5.2*

I liked this app to use with students who are learning to sign and share with those who can sign. I would like to see more signs put into the story to share with kids.

### 4/5 — Nice concept

*2014-02-15, version 5.2*

This is a cute story w/a nice amount of repetition for the signs being taught, although the signs could be repeated even more in the story for improved learning; some pages did not have any sign words on them, which is a missed opportunity for reinforcement. I like the embedded video for the signs. I would love to have, as an option, maybe an embedded video showing someone signing the whole story (All the words)  perhaps in a small corner window while the story was read aloud, so children could see the beauty of this visual language. It looks like a fun app for beginning to learn some basic signs.

### 5/5 — Great content for Learning Sign

*2020-05-20, version 1.1*

There is so much in this one app for learning sign language. I was happy to find four stories, two to read and two where you can play along by choosing from over 50 signed words to change the story.  Really fun app!

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2019-03-23, version 1.0*

Very easy to learn through these cute and entertaining stories.

### 5/5 — Any updates to this iPad app?

*2018-07-22, version 6.0.7*

Just wondering! I can’t open it until there’s a update! Thanks!

### 5/5 — Fantastic!!

*2017-09-16, version 6.0.7*

Amazing way to integrate learning with fun for kids. Can't wait to see the new app.

### 5/5 — Great app! A must have!

*2016-02-26, version 6.0.7*

I love how fun, educational, and user friendly this app is. It's very helpful to have the "library" to reference after reading the story. You're able to progress at your own pace and can always go back through the story. It makes learning sign language a lot less intimidating! I highly recommend downloading it.

### 5/5 — Sign me a story

*2015-07-10, version 6.0.7*

What a great app for children and adults as well. My kids love to read the story's with me and by themselves. Learning the signs by having fun. We can't wait to see what happens in the next book!

### 5/5 — I want more

*2015-03-08, version 6.0.7*

When will you have more chapter available. Are you going to come out with s kindle version as well?

### 5/5 — Great App for Learning Sign Language!

*2014-09-30, version 6.0.7*

This app is great with many stories that are simple and easy to understand.  The signs in the stories are clear as well.  I recommend this app for kids of any age! Great job!

### 5/5 — Easy learning

*2014-09-18, version 6.0.7*

Sign Me a Story is a fun and interactive way for children to learn sign language. While engaged in the digital, animated storybook, clicking on key words such as hat, home and backpack open separate videos. Each video is a girl showing the sign for that specific word. One can replay the video until the specific sign is memorized. Overall, it is a very inventive and original app for learning sign language.

### 5/5 — A Must Have!

*2014-09-08, version 6.0.7*

This is a fantastic user friendly, interactive “app” for people who have children with "Special Needs".
