[blindkid] Girl Scout Book in Braille?

[Jaquiss, Robert]

Hello:

     The NLS site http://www.loc.gov/nls 
has 38 titles with the term "girl scout". There seems to be quite an assortment.

Egards,

Subject: [blindkid] Girl Scout Book in Braille?

Hello,
I have been trying to get some girl scout material in Braille for my soon to be 
10 year old daughter. I have talked with the troop leaders and they do not know 
where to get this. I told them there has got to be a blind child who has been a 
 girlscout who is blind in the NFB. I told her I will try to find a resource to 
get materials in braille for them. Can anyone help me with this? The troop 
leaders have a book they teach out of. The kids really don't have a book they 
look at, they listen. But there are times when there are things that can be 
presented tactally and my daughter just sits there with no input.( Like 
yesterday, they talked about seeds and the different stages of the seed as it is 
growing and what it looks like. It would have been nice to have a tactile 
graphic showing the stages of the seed as it grew.) I think they have a hard 
time telling me in advance what they will be doing the next week. They thought 
it would be easier to get the book brailled with tactile graphics, and use them 
as needed. Any info that could be given would be greatly appreciated!
