About this title

Synopsis

Oscar, who is blind, teaches Lucy how to read his Braille book

Reviews

Kindergarten-Grade 2?Oscar, a blind boy, explains to his classmates that his books are not written in secret code, but in Braille. The Braille alphabet is illustrated so that sighted children can learn to recognize the letters and decipher a note that Oscar sends to a friend. An author's note suggests that children may wish to request a Braille book from the library. The watercolor-and-ink illustrations fill each page with the busy clutter of the classroom scenes. The message that comes across in this primer is that reading is fun whether one uses one's eyes or one's fingers.?Sharon R. Pearce, formerly at San Antonio Public Library, TX
