Freedman's gift for making his subjects both accessible and intriguing comes through wonderfully in this book. Readers learn not only about Braille and his struggle to communicate thorough the written word once he lost his sight, but also how long it took for his revolutionary innovation to become universally accepted.... Finely detailed pencil drawings and diagrams appear throughout the readable narrative. An entertaining and fascinating look at a remarkable man."媒体推荐"This biography. . . tells the familiar, moving story of the determination of Louis Braille, who did more than anyone is history to bring blind people into the mainstream of life . . . Rigidly rendered bandw illustrations make the setting of the story real; useful diagrams of Braille's alphabet and the slate and stylus used to write are included . . . "--"Kirkus Reviews."
