I See Without My Eyes by Mark Brauner Hayward, Illustrated by Nancy Lee Hartman
Summary: Nine year old Carolyn, who is blind, tells what it is like and the things the blind do to adapt to life. She talks about how they rely on their senses, guide dogs, and braille. Carolyn is out to live the best she can, and will not let being blind get in the way of that.
Review: Children always have questions, especially in preschool through first grade, and this book does a great job about giving information about the blind and how they live just like us, with just a few adjustments. This book would be a great with a lesson for young readers about how other people who are blind go about their daily lives and how sometimes other people who are different also have to adapt to the world around them. I would love to put this in my classroom library.
