 BRAILLE

Braille is special writing for blind people. Blind people cannot see, but they can read
Braille. Louis Braille invented the system in 1824, in France. At the time, he was only
fifteen years old.
The letters in Braille writing are not normal letters. They are dots on the paper. Blind
people touch the dots; they read the letters with their hands. Dots do not represent
only letters of the alphabet; they also represent numbers, punctuation, and frequent
words. Many blind people in the world can read in Braille. There are many books
written in Braille but they are very expensive.
Now, blind people can use computers and CD players at home and at work. There are
also calculators and different machines which can talk, these help blind people, too.
