[Dtb-talk] Tech Demo for a Parent of a Blind Child

[Hyde, David W. (ESC)]

Hi Tina,

The ideas that the others gave you are good. You might try the Dr. Souse books, the parents probably already know them, and some of the things like "if you give a Moose a Muffin," and that kind. Harry the Dirty Dog comes to mind. Give Jackie a call at the library there in Salem. She can probably give you a bunch of ideas.

Good hearing from you.

Subject: [Dtb-talk] Tech Demo for a Parent of a Blind Child

I recently had the chance to meet a parent of a blind child, and I am going to give them a demo of the various book readers I use so they can learn about them. This mother has a child who is not quite ready for school now, but probably will be by next September. The parent is just now learning about resources that can help this child.

Since I want to show this mother the book readers, I'd be interested in ideas for books that I might use with this parent. I'm thinking of using some children's books, but I also know that the parent is my main audience. Do any of you have suggestions for good books I might be able to use? Thanks.
