Six dots: A story of young Louis Braille


Six dots: A story of young Louis Braille is a 40-page hardcover book written for children from preschool to third grade. It is a Schneider Family Book Award winner about a boy who lost his sight at the age of five but still wanted to read and live like everyone else.

"Award-winning writer Jen Bryant tells Braille’s inspiring story with a lively and accessible text, filled with the sounds, the smells, and the touch of Louis’s world. Boris Kulikov’s inspired paintings help readers to understand what Louis lost, and what he was determined to gain back through books.

"An author’s note and additional resources at the end of the book complement the simple story and offer more information for parents and teachers." -publisher
