Birthday present to Sólborg

10th June 2025

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Sólborg in 2024, the Communication Centre gave Sólborg a true sign language present: a story in Icelandic Sign Language.

Sólborg got to choose a story and they chose Little Troll and the divorce of his parents. The author of the book is Aldís Guðrún Gunnarsdóttir and she also owns the exclusive rights to the artwork in the book. She kindly gave us permission to translate the book into ÍTM as well as to use the pictures. We thank her very much for that. Our one and only Uldis Ozols translated the story with assistance from Árný Gudmundsdóttir and Guðni Rósmundsson recorded it here in the SHH studio. Uldis then visited the children at Sólborg and performed the story for them in ÍTM.

The story can be seen on SignWiki: Trölli litli og skilnaður foreldra hans - SignWiki

Enjoy!
