Publisher's Summary

Poor jackdaw is about to fly into trouble - will he learn to read the animals' signs in time?

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 friendship and sign language was created by Gruffalo author Julia Donaldson, with a group of deaf children in a workshop organised by the not-for-profit organisation Life & Deaf (www.lifeanddeaf.co.uk), which helps deaf children to explore their identities through poetry, film, performance and art.

What the Jackdaw Saw is another beautiful book from the team behind Goat Goes to Playgroup and Toddle Waddle.
