After a long car ride filled with anticipation, Shakur is welcomed at his family reunion by a flurry of warm hugs from his grandparents. There are cousins to play with, including Judah, who Shakur has never met before. Judah is hearing and does not sign. No problem! Throughout a day filled with adventures together, Shakur teaches Judah a new language — American Sign Language. With this story, children will discover the joys of family and new friendships.

The front cover includes information on how to access the Gallaudet University ASL-English storybook app that goes along with the book.
