Summary

A collaborative effort by professionals from diverse disciplines, including linguistics and literature, has successfully created a bilingual children's book that bridges Mexican Sign Language (LSM) or indigenous languages with the rich pre-Hispanic cultural heritage of Mexico. The book, set against the backdrop of the archaeological site of Xochicalco, features narration in Spanish and Nahuatl, accompanied by meticulous illustrations. This innovative approach aims to make complex historical narratives accessible and engaging for a broader audience, including those who rely on sign language or indigenous languages for communication.
