Braille not only brings literacy to people who are blind. Braille is used for math, for music, in art, and so much more! Share with us how you use #Braille. #BrailleIsBeautiful

One of the best parts about books is being able to imagine how everything looks. Tracey West πŸ‰πŸ§šπŸΆ dragon from her #DragonMasters books probably looks completely different from your dragon. How would your dragon look? Tell us!

Today was April fools, but we weren't quick enough to come up with something clever. We did flip the page on our Braille calendar from March to April though. Did you do something creative today? Extra points if it involved Braille.

Do you remember the first book you read in Braille? Was it a memorable experience for you, and did you feel proud of yourself for being able to read it? Did you learn braille as a child alongside your peers, or did you learn it as an adult?

Was that the moon blocking out the sun, or was that a dragon? There was much excitement about the 2024 total solar eclipse on April 8, but we're excited that books 1 - 25 of the Dragon Masters Series are available in Braille ready format. actionfund.org/resources/drag…

Looking for a fun idea for your blind child? We found the perfect gift for Mom or that special teacher. Why not have them work on braille skills and make a flower in braille? οΏΌ #BrailleIsBeautiful pathstoliteracy.org/flowers-in-a-j…

As a person who is blind, or a Braille reader, what is something you never leave home without? A spare cane tip, a slate and stylus? something to read in Braille? Share what you'll be taking along as you prepare for a long summer trip or short weekend getaway.
