Young readers (pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, first grade), usually consist of only one to four lines of simple text on a page of paper. To make decision making a little easier, here are a few guidelines when transcribing early readers. — Denise Bean
New Weekly Dose: Storybooks for Early Readers
For more information and to see past Weekly Dose of Braille topics check out our Weekly Dose of Braille Page.
The Weekly Dose of Braille is created by our Youth Services Librarian and Braille Transcriber, Denise Bean, with the help of our Instructional Materials team. It gives you a taste of braille examples that may be used in worksheets or textbook formatting. It is a miscellaneous mixture of tricky, sometimes challenging circumstances, that a braille transcriber may come across or question. Provided each week is a downloadable PDF file on each topic, a brf file can also be made available for your convenience.
