Hi Gene,

I missed the beginning of the conversation, so this may be a repeat,
but there are also kid's magazines available in Braille.  Here's the
list from "Magazines in Special Media":

Boy's Life

Children's Digest (published by Parent's magazine)

Current Events (for grades 7 & 8)

Expectations (Anthology of books and selected chapters from outstanding
books for 8-13; includes poetry, embossed pictures, and a
scratch-and-sniff section. (annual, free)

My Weekly Reader
Wee Wisdom
Playboy (just kidding)
and many others.  More details on request.

Some are available in both large print and braille for sharing reading
experiences.  -rsr-

... Only the young die good.
