>Throughout his life, Dr. Seuss had two goals — to make us laugh, and to
>make us think. He said, “I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells
.
>And that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.”
>
>Once again, Dr. Seuss puts his own unique spin on an NBP Favorite—our
>annual print/braille calendar! Our 2008 print/braille calendar includes
>twelve scenes and quotes from Dr. Seuss’s books, each providing laughter
>and insight to help keep you inspired throughout the year. The calendar
>features the Cat in the Hat, Sam-I-Am, Marvin K. Mooney, the Grinch, and
>eight more well-loved scenes from Dr. Seuss’s imagination.
>
>The braille is included on clear plastic sheets that go right over the
>print pages, and all pictures are described. And as always, our calendar
>features a Special Bonus — a sheet of sixty  full-color stickers of Dr.
>Seuss’s more famous characters to mark birthdays, appointments, and
>other important days.
>
>Order very soon — the calendar always sells out!

>Here in Boston, we're getting ready for the World Series -- not to rub
>it in! If you have a young baseball fan, check out the wonderful
>print/braille book "Dad, Jackie and Me," in which a boy's relationship
>with his father parallels the struggles and triumphs of the first
>African-American player in the Major Leagues.
>
>'Publishers Weekly' called this book "an affecting tribute to Robinson,
>to a dedicated son, and to a thoughtful, deep-feeling father. And, of
>course, to baseball."
