Braille Bug Reading Club Selections for the 2005-2006 School Year
|
|
|
|
This year, in collaboration with CareerConnect®,
AFB's employment web site, the Braille Bug is asking,
"What do you want to be when you grow up?"
|
|
|
|
The Reading Club will feature books
that highlight different professions and will also recommend books for a variety of reading levels.
|
|
|
|
Through the CareerConnect mentor database, readers will find links
to people with vision loss who perform these jobs, and can send them an e-mail with questions about their work.
