Hi April,

I happen to know a lot of pregnant blind women at the moment or recent
mothers who would love these TO READ TO THEIR BABIES.  And with a new and
growing chapter in my community, having a few on hand is useful for reading
to sighted kids at library summer reading programs, or giving adult learners
of braille tangible motivation to learn (Wouldn't it be great to read to
your children/grandchildren?).  I have also collected foreign language
children's books for years and have been meaning to start a braille
collection of my own.

Oh yeah, I could see me buying a few books!  Send me your list!

Regards,
