Talking Book Blind

in the movie, on the part where Micheal has to write an essay but needs to read a novel first, what novel is Tim Mcgraw talking about when he's telling the plot about the 600 soldiers who ended up dying in the end?

It's actually a Tennyson poem called "The Charge of the Light Brigade"

In memorial and honor of Chris Guthrie (1969-2011) we at the North Carolina Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped present a history NLS ...

I've used this free government service where everything is thru the mail - tapes and machine- and is free. Just can't find site.

National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS)
The Library of Congress

Here's the website...

I have started a petition on the Downing Street website asking that more books be made available in the talking book format for blind and partially sighted people.

Do you agree with this? If you do, would you consider signing my petition available at the link below,

If you decide to sign, please pass the link on to as may groups or individuals as you can who you might think would sign.

Thanks

Mia76, Access to computers and the internet is done through speech software, but it is very expensive.

Yes, and they should also somehow have easier access to the internet. I'm sorry that I don't know HOW that is going to work out, but if they can't have access to the internet they are missing a lot--it doesn't help educate them and it's imply unfair...

But aside from braille books, they should also have PodCasts. This wont only be helpful for blind people but also for people who have ADD/ADHD and Dyslexia. What do you think?

PS: I would love to sign your petition, but I'm not British. Sorry. BUT GOOD LUCK!

I saw a review in People magazine on this book. It talked about how he struggles with his new sight, seeing his wife for the first time. How at times he wished to go back to the familiarity of blindness. Any ideas please?:)

its called Crashing Through by Robert Kersen. this is per Ann at Borders.
