Books for blind and visually impaired children
with tactile, hand-made illustrations
About the publisher: FINGERTIP READING publishes
books for blind and visually impaired children, books
which are both ingenious in design and beautiful in
appearance. The books are printed both in Braille and
Fingertip Reading
offset, with letters large enough so that even partially
sighted people can read them without difficulty.
The same text appears on each double page, Braille
on the right and offset on the left (in some cases, vice
versa). Thanks to this design, parents and teachers
can read the books together with their unsighted
children and pupils. This way the child learns to read
Braille more easily, while the opportunity to read
together brings enjoyment to both child and adult.
The visual beauty of the books is demonstrated in
