About this listen

In the late 1700s, young Louis Braille overcame his disability by inventing "night writing," a system of raised dots to help blind people read. This alphabet of raised dots allowed sightless people to live more independent lives.

Very basic information and the last 2 minutes don't make sense as you cannot see the dots that were intended fo be seen in the text book - i would have liked it to go into more audio detail about the different braille dots but this book really isn't about braille, it's about its creator,

Short but sweet
