Go Apply for Free Braille Books!

I know I've told you about the Dolly Parton Imagination Library (DPIL) & American Printing House for the Blind (APH) book program before but I thought I'd remind everyone again.

These are beautiful books! The selections are popular mainstream children's books that you usually can't find in Braille. Do you like the Llama Llama books? They've got it! That's how we were introduced to Llama Llama.

Here we are, reading a book together!

By enrolling in the Partners Print/Braille Book Program, a child is able to receive five FREE print/braille books each year until reaching his/her 6th birthday. 

APH selects the titles from the current year's DPIL booklist those most appropriate for a child with a visual impairment. Print/braille versions are mailed directly to the child's family.

If your child a potential braille reader under six years of age APPLY now for the Partners Print/Braille Book Program! Books are limited and enrollment is on a first come/first serve basis. Complete and submit the application form here. 

It's so easy to apply. It takes about a minute to sign up. And it's exciting to see a new book show up in the mail every couple months.

This free service is made possible by generous donors from across the country. APH welcomes contributions to help defray initial costs and expand the program so that all blind and visually impaired children will benefit from this wonderful service. Donate Now!
