ASL Story Time: Calvin Can’t Fly

ASL Story Time is a fun family activity designed to strengthen literacy skills in both American Sign Language and English.

Our September Story Time features the children’s book Calvin Can’t Fly written by Jennifer Berne and illustrated by Keith Bends.

 Calvin is one unusual starling! While his siblings and cousins learn to fly, this rare bird buries his beak in a book. Yet, when it comes time to migrate, poor Calvin realizes he cannot fly.  his sisters, brothers, and cousins carry him into the air. But on their way south, the winds blow hard, the trees bend and the air starts to smell strange. It’s a hurricane, and only Calvin can save the day – because he has read all about it.
