Small Braille Books:
We have available for sale little Whittle Braille Books. These 3 by 5 inch books include UEB literary Braille. This is a great way to help new Braille learners of all ages to quiz themselves on the Braille code or for teachers and parents to quickly review Braille contractions. These come in either Braille or print. They are also great gifts for regular classroom teachers, grandparents, siblings, friends, or classroom peers! Several BELL Academy programs have furnished these to help reinforce the code to their participants. Each book is $10, and orders can be placed online at http://www.nbpcb.org/pages/whittle-pocket-reference-book.php.

Please help us get the word out by letting everyone on your social media contact lists know about them. All profits go towards children's literacy programs!
