Private and Confidential Hardcover - 2004
by Marion Ripley; Colin Backhouse (Illustrator)
How do you read and write when you can't see? This is a question many children wonder about as they begin to master these skills. In this uplifting story, Laura has discovered that her Australian pen pal is blind, so she decides to learn to use a Brailler machine. It's an exciting challenge, and soon Laura and Malcolm are corresponding in Braille. Laura has always wanted to have her very own private and confidential letters and now she does!
A genuine Braille message is printed at the back of the book along with an alphabet key so that readers can experience how Braille works. The short afternote also shares interesting facts about Braille. This unique book offers a meaningful way to introduce children to the subject of visual impairment.END
