Living with the use of one’s eyes can make imagining blindness difficult, but this innovative title invites readers to imagine living without sight through remarkable illustrations done with raised lines and descriptions of colors based on imagery.
Thomas can’t see colors, but he can hear them and smell them and touch them and taste them.
Now you can try to see the world the way Thomas sees it.
Raised line drawings and Braille letters are included as an introduction for sighted readers.
If someone handed you a big bowl of jelly beans, how would you figure out how many there are? You could count them, one by one―or you could estimate. Do you see more than five jelly beans? Less than a million?
We use estimation in Math when the exact answer to a problem is not required. The said problem can be resolved with an approximately realistic value. Estimating also helps us get the answer to a calculation faster.
The name Braille deserves to be on everyone’s list of great inventor. Just like these others, he recognized a rough idea (a fingertip code used on battlefields) and worked exhaustively to shape it into something that changed the world forever.
A little girl sails her raft across a sea of words, arriving at the house of a small boy and calling him away on an adventure. Through forests of fairy tales and across mountains of make-believe, the two travel together on a fantastical journey that unlocks the boy’s imagination.
“This is an editor favorite for its inventive illustrations and story that explores the wonders of books. It’s great for children beginning to experience the joy of reading independently.” – Seira Wilson, Amazon Editor
