Free Children's Braille Books

The Braille Special Collection

The Braille Special Collection was designed to increase braille literacy by offering blind and visually impaired children the opportunity to order a variety of books throughout the year, free of charge, to create a special library of their own.

We have a transcribed collection of classic and contemporary literature and nonfiction material encompassing more than 1,100 titles and appealing to all reading levels. Families may order up to 12 braille books a year from our seasonal catalogs.

Any visually impaired child who is living in the United States or Canada and is between the ages of 3 and 18 is eligible for the Braille Special Collection Program.

Please note: The Special Collection Program is designed for individual children and can only be sent to a child's home or residential school address.

Schools and libraries may participate through our Partners in Literacy Program
