A Braille Reader in the Family is a booklet for parents. It contains information about braille and tips on how to help a child who is or who will be learning braille. The activities and games have been suggested by teachers and parents, and most do not require knowledge of braille – although parents are encouraged to learn the alphabet. Many children will be the only person they know learning braille, so the booklet also includes positive quotes from braille readers of all ages.
