[Blindtlk] blindtlk Digest, Vol 38, Issue 9

Thu Aug 13 18:02:03 UTC 2009

Diane what you need to do is call the national office at 410-659-9314 hit 
option 1 and either leave a message for Mrs. Maurer or email them at 
nfb at nfb.org with the changes you need to make.  We had to do that recently 
when we had a change in the presidency of our local chapter in Cumberland 
Maryland. Cordially, Patrick Gormley Vice-president greater Cumberland 
chapter nfb of Maryland.

> Froggy Goes to Bed
> by Jonathan London
> Print/Braille edition, $5.99
> Ages 2-6
>
> Time for bed!
>
> Even when Froggy goes to bed, it's a high-action adventure. In Froggy's
> world nothing is ever easy or efficient, and everything has its own set
> of goofy sound effects: "flop flop flop," "splash splash splash," and
> "munch scrunch munch."
>
> Despite the fact that Froggy is "too pooped to pop," he is not at all
> tired when it's time for bed. He has to find his boat before he can take
> a bubble bath, look for his pajamas, his toothbrush (it is not in the
> fishbowl or the wastebasket, but in the cookie jar), grab his huggy, and
> munch a bowl of flies for a snack. It finally ends when Froggy's tired
> mother falls asleep while reading him his bedtime story.
>
> "What my daughter (nearly 2 yrs old) learned from this book is how to
> say 'FROOOGGGYYY' when she sees the word. At her age, she enjoys helping
> me 'find' things, and enjoys froggy's searches for lost items. She also
> identifies froggy's 'brushing' in a positive tone, and says 'oops' with
> concern that froggy has spilled water. This story relates to her
> reality. And, above all, it is the first book she has tried to 'read' on
> her own." - J. Towe, on Amazon.com

> "Froggy's stalling tactics will delight any child who has ever begged to
