I can’t believe people
have not helped people with this problem in the last 50 years. I know my mother stayed on the phone back then, to get books in enlarged reading because at the time he had slight vision in one eye but the other had to be removed. I
think we were the first families to get a set of World Books with the larger printed letters. I used them for
school projects as well, and they were alot easier to read.
The services for the blind was almost nil back then, I hope
that people will support the issues that the blind have in obtaining books in braille and other book sources. CMO
