Hello Katelyn,
If we're able to suggest books, I'd like to put forward Lisette
Wessling's book which is aimed at young children learning Braille
Music. It's called Focus on Braille Music. There's also a really good
one called Braille Music in Print but I can't remember who it's buy.
It was published in New Zealand. It has tactile diagrams of stave
notation and has Braille Music of what the print is underneath.

Very best wishes,
Sandra.
