“DEAF LIKE ME” By: Thomas Spradley & James Spradley My first reaction to this book was not good. I had barely gotten into it and the parents were contemplating aborting this precious little child just because it might turn out to be abnormal. It wasn’t even a sure thing that the child might be different; just a possibility.

I learned a few new signs I learned how to sign I don’t care; I’m full‚ and weird. I talked

Texas School for the Deaf. It was such a cultural shock to “see” everyone communicating. Instead of hearing people’s voices‚ I “saw” their voice. It was amazing to me to finally witness people hearing with their eyes and speaking with their hands. It was then that I realized I wanted to major in Deaf Education/Studies.
