[blindkid] Spanish-English/English-Spanish Dictionary

I have emailed Bookshare but haven't heard from them yet. When I told Aubrie
that I had made this request, she got pretty excited. She said that if she
had a Spanish-English dictionary, she would read the whole thing. She has
spent a lot of time reading the dictionary on the BN and loves reading such
things.

Bonnie,
That would be wonderful!
I agree that this would be a great & valuable Bookshare project.
(I was going to make that same suggestion, but you beat me to it [smile] )
Please keep us posted.
Thanks
