Can't do it with math, of course, but it sure makes the case for electronic
braille files, doesn't it?

We ended up getting Michael a loft bed so we could put a desk and shelves
under it. Then we have two other 5 row shelves besides the shelves under the
loft bed and still end up putting some books on the top of those shelves.

Math books in high school run about 40 volumes or so..... so book space
problems just keep getting worse as they get older - Sorry!

Great question!  I can't wait to hear the responses.  This is a never ending

issue with us as well!
