My Heart Glow

A cute book about how Alice Cogswell inspired Gallaudet and Clerc to bring French sign language to America, told from Alice's perspective. Interesting that this book brings up Alice's fears that God has punished her by making her deaf - it kind of gets waved away by her dad saying that she's one of God's favourites.
I liked the depiction of the manual alphabet on the cover - I'm assuming it's what the French sign langage (LSF) manual alphabet looked like back in Alice's day, because it's slightly different from modern ASL and according to wikipedia, also slightly different from modern LSF.
