Noah's Ark

Set includes:  Print/braille picture book, print and braille "Fun Facts
About Noah's Ark,"  12 delightful tactiles, all for $28

Stories about a great flood appear  in ancient legends all over the
world. The biblical account, told in the  Book of Genesis 6-9, tells of a
righteous man, Noah, who builds a large  vessel to save his family and a
representation of the world's  animals.

National Braille Press is pleased to bring the story, the man,  and his
menagerie of animals to life in three ways: a print/ braille book  by
five-time Caldecott Award-winner Jerry Pinkney that tells the story  of
Noah; twelve delightful tactiles by tactile artist Ann Cunningham;  as
well as a booklet called Fun Facts About Noah's Ark that tells  you
things about turtles, penguins, giraffes, elephants, and dragonflies  you
never knew!

This three-part set is meant to bring hours of  conversation and learning
to the whole family or classroom.  Don't  wait to order: Noah's Ark makes
a one-of-a-kind gift! 


And don't  forget the Braille Caravan!

Join the Braille Caravan - an amazing  tactile toy from Creative
Adaptations for Learning. Made in the USA, each  block of the caravan
represents a braille cell fashioned in goldenrod  non-toxic plastic, with
six contrasting black pegs that glide up or down to  form dots 1-6. Use
your finger, stylus, or pencil to push the peg forward  from the
underside of the block, just as you would with a slate and stylus.  Flip
the block over and read what you wrote. Blocks connect to form a  caravan
of words, numbers, or sentences - build, challenge, and hone  tactile
reading, writing, and spelling skills. 

Braille Caravan  includes 30 blocks in a carrying bag, an Activity
Guide,and an English  Braille Symbols Chart, for only $34!
