My son did not speak until 15 months. From 11 months to 18 months, we used this book to aid in communication with him. It wasn't until the day that he said his first word that we realized he had been using his own sign for "kitty" since he was 7 months old.
I like how this book recognizes that not all signs have to be formal. They just have to have meaning for your child. The pictures in the book are very simple and easy to understand.

I used this with my son, who began signing on his own at around 13 months. He didn't really talk until after he was 18 months old, but his ability to sign around 20 or so words enabled him to communicate wonderfully! It was great for everyday living at our house, but the neatest part was how amazed his grandparents and aunt and uncles were over how they could "understand" what Ricky wanted without him being able to say the words! It was especially cool to see how he expanded his signs to include more concrete things - such as using the "more" sign when he wanted you to play a game with him again, vs. for food only; as well as making up his own signs for things. This book was a great tool for us!

It looks great, except I had triplets and don't have the time to use it!
