Hi Lorry, Seedlings is a wonderful source for children's books in Braille: http://www.seedlings.org/, in addition to referring families to the Michigan Braille and Talking Book Library (BTBL).

We do our purchasing through B&T, but I am open to purchasing them from another source if needed. Are there any grants available to purchase braille materials? I would need these to be for kids and teens. Thank you so much for your help! -- “It is not true that we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish.” – S.I.
