Was wondering if anyone knew of a book/etc that could teach a left handed person to crotchet?

Was wondering if anyone knew of a book/etc that could teach a left handed person to crotchet?

Actually... I am left handed! My right handed grandmother taught me how to crochet. At first, she was puzzled as to how she was going to teach me, but then, she decided to have me sit in front of her while she showed me each step. This made us a "mirror image" of each other. When I was by myself, I could learn by looking at the instructions in a book, then watching myself in a mirror while I was doing each step. It worked perfectly!

I think these how-to videos will help as well!
