Item Description

For a child who is blind, deafblind or visually impaired, braille storybooks open up a world of words and tactile exploration. Even children who have not yet learned to read can enjoy the feel of braille as a parent, family member or teacher reads aloud.

Storybooks like these help children learn that braille "tells a story" and prepare the way for future literacy through braille. Your gift can help provide a child who is blind, deafblind or visually impaired with a braille storybook—perhaps the first step toward learning braille for a preschooler.
