When my son was little, I belonged to the NBP book club. It's great for 
sighted parents of blind children or in my case for blind parents of sighted 
children. This is a classic.

>>Thousands of children's books are published each year, but only a handful

>>Several years ago, we decided to keep some classics in stock - in addition
>>to our monthly selections for the Children's Braille Book Club-books like
>>"Madeline" and "Little Red Riding Hood." Now we have added Don Freeman's

>>little girl. We're offering Corduroy in both English and Spanish editions.

>>Plus, Barnes & Noble is allowing us to sell their plush 9-inch Corduroy 
>>bear
>>- made exclusively for their stores - to our customers! Now your children 
>>or
