Miss Polly Had a Dolly - Illustrated Anthony Lewis

Learn to Sign with Miss Polly Had a Dolly!

Miss Polly Had a Dolly by Anthony Lewis is part of the beloved Sing, Sign & Rhyme series—a collection of baby board books designed to support early communication through British Sign Language (BSL) and familiar nursery rhymes.

Before they can speak, babies can use simple signs to express what they feel and need. By introducing sign language from as early as eight months, caregivers can help reduce frustration and support emotional development. As children begin to talk, having signs to fall back on provides a comforting bridge to spoken language.

This beautifully illustrated book encourages babies and toddlers to sign, mime, and sing along with the classic rhyme Miss Polly Had a Dolly. Developed in collaboration with Lancashire C.C. Early Years and Childcare Service and SureStart Resources Ltd, it promotes language learning, motor coordination, and interactive storytelling in an inclusive, engaging format.

• Develops early language and vocabulary
• Introduces basic BSL signs for everyday emotions and routines
• Encourages rhythm, memory, and participation
