Each group tells you if it has braille and pictures, or braille and text.
The books for ages 1-5 pretty much all have pictures. They have them with
grade 1 and 2 Braille with pictures, and they are mostly Braille books.

I am hoping that this is not to odd of a question. But when going to the
site I am wanting to buy books for my sighted nieces and nephews, to
introduce braille to them as well as to reinforce their  independent reading
skills. I am interested in opening their minds, as I am totally blind, I am
needing to know if the toddler or books for toddler thru say 9 years old
have pictures, print and braille. sorry to ask such an obvious question, but
I want my family to understand there are many ways to read and write and
this is one wonderful way to bridge that divide and come together to break
down barriers. Braille is not just something for the blind, at least that is
what I think. Thanks in advance for your help.
