<p class="MsoNormal">If you thought the introduction of the UEB code was a stormy one, you should have been at the production sight of our UEB Whittle Book production location late last month! We experienced a Category F3 tornado with winds over 145 miles per
hour. We have been able to temporarily locate and we are back in production!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Available for sale pocket reference books of the Unified English Braille literary code. This book is 3 by 5 inches and easily fits in a pocket, purse, or backpack. We have an interpoint braille version for those who read braille tactually.
The small size makes it manageable for both adults and little ones. We also have an ink version that consists of print and simulated braille. Perfect for parents, friends, and teachers. These books are great for those just learning the Braille code for the
first time, or refreshing their Braille knowledge! These are great for give-a-ways for summer braille programs or just to ensure that you or your kids don’t get too rusty over the summer break.
