"There are paths" ... begins this simple tactile book with more than 10 diverse textures for the young child to trace with is fingers. Set against a black background, the colorful paths are easily seen and felt. The print/braille text, contracted Unified English Braille, tells the story of rough, rugged paths, paths that zig and zag, and paths like waves. Some paths climb mountains, some lead nowhere, and others offer choices... " And then there is the path of life, the most beautiful path of all." Little Paths was written by Catherine Colin and is ideal for promoting tracking skills and encouraging texture discrimination. It is intended to be read aloud and shared with children who are visually impaired. Reading aloud can be one of the most powerful contributions adults make to a young child's development of literacy. Awareness of written language is developed. Sharing books in an interactive manner, talking about the text and illustrations, has been demonstrated to build vocabulary and strengthen oral language skills. Not least important, reading aloud from a book enjoyed by both child and adult connects reading to pleasure. For emergent print readers, pictures act as an important bridge for a child who is a visual learner, helping him take a more active role in reading, as a listener and as a reader. Books with tactile illustrations support the child who is a tactual learner in similar, important ways, offering him opportunities to: build exploratory skills ; build tactile discrimination skills ; encounter spatial relationships ; conventions of 2 dimensional graphics.--APH website.
