[nfbmi-talk] seedlings free book....

Hello,

We are perplexed. Registration for the free braille book program called "the Gift of Reading" is down this year (225 children vs. an average of 270 children in previous years). If you have not registered your child/student(s), please do so now! The deadline has been extended to Monday, 11/22. We will be mailing the books on December 1st, so please hurry, as we need time to make and pack your books!
 

The Detroit Free Press has again generously funded the Gift of Reading Program for 2010. This means that all Michigan VI children who are braille readers (or pre-readers) can register to receive one free braille book from Seedlings Braille Books for Children for the holidays (you list 3 choices and we will send one of them)!

  

The fastest way to register is to go to: http://www.seedlings.org/giftread.php and fill out the form (a confirming email will be sent to you), or you can call Seedlings at 734-427-8552 (800-777-8552 tollfree). If you need help selecting a book, we will do our best to help you.



The deadline for registration has been extended to 11-22-10! Please don't miss your chance to get your child a free braille book (and please feel free to forward this email to other Michigan parents and teachers!)
