Comment: |
Children's books in both braille and text. The primary aim of this project is to increase the range and interest of material available to children learning to read braille and to enable books to be shared with sighted friends. The clearvision process takes standard children's picture books and adds the brailled text on clear plastic sheets so that the pictures and print text are still visible. The books can then also be used by visually impaired adults wanting to read to sighted children. The books are chosen from popular fiction and National Curriculum related information books. Most titles are available in either grade 1 or grade 2 braille. Schools and libraries may borrow books from Clearvision.
