Seedlings publishes 500th book in UEB!

   Seedlings Braille Books for Children just published its 500th book in Unified English Braille (UEB) on Monday!   That means Seedlings is a leader, if not the leader, among braille publishers in the United States in the number of children's titles it offers in the new code.   The 500th book is A to Z Mysteries: The Panda Puzzle, the story of three kids trying to find a panda kidnapped from the zoo.    Seedlings has been converting books in its catalog from the old braille code since 2016 when the United States officially adopted UEB.   All 314 of its print-and-braille books for younger readers have been in UEB for a few years. Now 186 of its all-braille books for older readers are in UEB, for a total of 500!   Other recently converted titles include A Little House Chapter Book: Laura's Ma; Magic Tree House #4: Pirates Past Noon; The Westing Game, a Newbery Medal winner; We'll Race You, Henry - A Story about Henry Ford; and My Book of Bible Stories.   Seedlings is continuing to add titles in UEB at the rate of about one a week so check www.seedlings.org often for the latest offerings!
