What They’re Saying About I See the World…
"I will give this book to our newest granddaughter to get her book collection off to a wonderful start. We will share this very special story with all the children, and it should provide a great opportunity for meeting people with disabilities and learning how they have the same feelings on the inside as all of us. Thank you for providing such a great bridge to the discussion." “This past Sunday I had the opportunity to share your wonderful book, “I See the World” with my cousin’s son who is six years old and has amblyopia. He doesn’t wear a patch but uses special drops which blur the vision in his good eye, forcing him to use his “lazy eye”. He, of course, thought the book was all about him and was positively thrilled. I’m not sure if you have any idea what a powerful impact your work has on children who see things just a bit differently. To see his face light up and to see him show such enthusiasm over a “book” was monumental, touching, and such a special moment. Thanks for the special work you do, and for thinking outside the box.” “By awakening one to understanding and compassion for the experiences of the visually impaired, this lovely book causes one to choose a softer, kinder lens for seeing his or her fellow travelers in this world…” “…I decided to give the book to my granddaughter, Emily, since she has a blind girl in her class. According to her mother, Emily is fascinated with her classmate, and tries to help her all the time. She is really enjoying I See the World. Thanks!” “Just finished reading I See the World. The design, illustrations, braille explanations, stories, and characters are all delightful. You and Karen have done a wonderful job--an act of love. I will treasure this book…” “Our three girls love this wonderfully illustrated, heart-warming book! Each of them has a favorite page, and as parents we are glad to have this "tool" to broaden their horizons about the diversity of people in this wonderful world.” Fernando & Cathe, College Station, TX “My nephew loved the book! He seemed to really like the imagery the most, and I thought that was pretty cool, since he’s a busy boy and they’re so hard to keep still. So I think it’s something he’ll keep and always be able to enjoy. Thanks again, and all the best with I See the World!” I gave the book, I See the World, to both my grandchildren, and I am delighted with their reaction to the colorful drawings on each page as I read to them. They are too young to understand the concept but I am sure it will introduce them to a world of sharing and understanding. Thank you for this opportunity. “I love the pictures in the book and the letters in braille! “I really love this book! I read it to my roommate's baby and he enjoys it very much. I have been spreading the word to my friends and coworkers who have kids. Thank you for I See the World!” “This is a great book!” |
