  • "The story of Louis Braille, born in France in 1809, and his struggle amid harsh conditions to perfect a code of raised dots punched through sheets of paper, to fashion an alphabet that opened the world of learning to the blind."
  • "Bickel tells the life of Louis Braille, creator of the code of raised dots which allows the blind to read and write. He tells of how Braille was blinded in an accident, and how he began to work on his tactile system of writing. He also describes the difficulties Braille faced in the initial lack of acceptance of the code by those who refused to recognize a system not based on the shapes of the print alphabet."
