What do you think is the best book every interpretor should read?

Student interpreter here, I want to know from the ASL community, particularly from ASL interpreters or anyone really, what you think is the book that people who want to become ASL interpreters should read? I'm not talking about textbooks like the "Signing Naturally" series, those I have, I am talk about a book either you have been recommended to read or a teacher might have required you to read for your classes that you think people who want to become interpreters should read. Maybe this book had good advice for future interpreters or maybe good insight on the language or the deaf community? It could be a general knowledge book or a book about something really specific related to ASL and interpreting or even a book about interpreting as a profession. I am looking for suggestions of books to read while I am in between classes. (Summer break).

What is the most up to date ASL dictionary?

Hello, I'm a student ASL interpreter and I am currently looking for the best most up to date ASL dictionary. Ideally a dictionary I can pull out and look up words when needed since I do not always have a phone available on me I cannot simply Google words. I am looking for a physical book, no preferences for hard or soft cover, I don't have a preference for how big the book is, and I have no budget, willing to pay more if it is a highly rated and trust worthy dictionary. Got any suggestions?
