Title: Who Was Louis Braille?
Author: Margaret Frith
Pages:112
Finished: July 8, 2017
First Sentence: When Louis Braille was three years old, he had a terrible accident that left him blind.
Summary: This slim volume in the Who Was series follows the life of Louis Braille and how he developed the Braille writing system for those who are blind.
Thoughts: I help kids find books in this series daily, yet this is the first time I've read one of the books. I was pleasantly surprised. The information is solid, but simple enough for third and fourth graders to enjoy. The book reads like a story, so it remains interesting enough for younger kids. Definitely a great addition to elementary non-fiction literature.
