description: A simple story and free-spirited illustrations entice even the stubbornly uncreative among us to make a mark -- and follow where it takes us. BrailleInk.'s board book version of this popular, award-winning title reproduces the original print and illustration at the top of the page. Contracted braille is added at the bottom of the page, with the corresponding print letters printed again directly above the braille cells. Since it is easy for anyone to tell what the braille says, this book is ideal both for teaching/learning braille and for teaching sighted children about braille. There is also a printed glossary that shows the alphabet, numbers, punctuation, and contractions that are used in this book.
