The Zuri Trilogy is a delightful collection of three stories capturing heartwarming conversations between Zuri in her early developmental years and the friends and family she interacts with. Join her on this charming journey, giggling and smiling as she explores the world, learns, and grows.
From bath time chats to ‘Hmmm!’ walk exercises, and the eye-opening ‘That’s Not Nice’ discussions, Zuri’s adventures are filled with moments of curiosity and discovery. The stories also introduce Makaton signs to help readers learn alongside Zuri. Inspired by her uncle, who is ‘non-verbal’ and has a learning disability, Zuri is encouraged to use sign language to communicate with him – and you’re invited to join in, too!
How many Makaton signs can you find in this trilogy? Let’s count and practice together! These signs make conversations more inclusive and foster deeper connections with friends and family. Have fun learning, and don’t worry if it feels tricky at first – Zuri reminds us, ‘I practice, and practice, and practice – and tah-dah! See, I got it right, Grandma!’
Let’s improve our skills, embrace inclusivity, and share the joy of learning Makaton. Who knows how many lives we can touch with a little effort and a lot of heart?
