Why people recommend it
My First Book of Sign by Pamela J. Baker is a foundational work designed to help readers learn the basics of sign language. The book has been referenced in varied contexts across multiple podcasts. On The Daily Stoic, guest Ryan Holiday spoke with host Ryan Holiday about his own writing journey on The Daily Stoic episode titled Rich Roll's Secret To Momentum, broadcast on December 9, 2024. He recalled that when his own first book was published, the New York Times agreed to review it only on the condition that it was reviewed alongside another book. Separately, on an episode of Pod Save America titled Kristi Noem Fails Spectacularly on Press Tour as Chances to be Trump's VP Dim, released on May 7, 2024, the podcast host discussed political memoirs. The host noted that Politico had reported on a previous book written by Kristi Noem, pointing out that in her first book, her editorial team successfully persuaded her to remove a controversial story about killing a puppy, an omission that contrasted sharply with her later publications where the story was prominently included. Through these discussions, podcast contributors explored the editorial hurdles, revisions, and strategic choices that shape the publication of high-profile authors and political figures alike.
