Some Kids Are Blind

Resource Type

Book - Child

Description

"Kids who are different need to be accepted and understood. With a simple text and photographs Schaefer describes children who are blind, their challenges and adaptations, and their everyday activities. Readers will see and learn that these kids are really not much different. Blind kids can't see but they use their other senses to undertake tasks like reading and telling time. Some kids have guide dogs or use canes to help them avoid obstacles when walking. The closing pages contain a word list with definitions that are written on a higher level than the text, a list of additional books, Internet sites and an index/word list. Part of the 'Understanding Differences' series." -Children's Literature (barnesandnoble.com)
