Braille for the Sighted (Grade one + Grade two): A course in contracted braille

Very useful for someone learning Braille for the first time. Some errors though.

Poor quality print. No raised areas to learn from. Some sentences repeat directly after each other.

As someone who is legally blind and learning Braille, I bought this book for my Wife and Grandson. It lays out Grade 1 uncontracted Braille and the Grade 2 Contracted Braille that we in the blind community use to read. Book is well written and laid out in a manner that explains most of the “hows” and “whys” of Braille. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn Braille. You can learn from this book.

Beautiful, very useful, it would take a periodic publication

Great

Update: Some information may be German Braille and not UEB (I was curious about the differences since I did the basic language course in Uni and had a PDF). Definitely use as a supplement book and not a main or only reference. It was the round brackets ( ) that were not UEB. ----------------------- Love the print size and layout of the lessons, along with the corresponding exercises to practice. Added bonus is the extra blank pages you could use a template to create more for endless practice with pen/pencil. However, some information is incorrect. So far I noticed (printing?) errors with the punctuation braille, so I would recommend using this as a practice workbook ONLY and buy another UEB braille book to use as a "Textbook". Or download the UEB braille PDF. I am using my 2nd UEB braille book with the PDF and websites to be absolutely sure I am not learning the wrong information now.

Great thick print
