Mauve 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 Reading by touch Learning to read can be quite difficult but think how much harder it would be if you couldn’t see. This was the problem a French boy, Louis Braille, had almost 200 years ago. When Louis was three he wandered into his father’s workshop where he accidentally stabbed himself in the eye with a sharp tool. That eye became infected, which then spread to the other eye. Poor Louis lost the sight in both his eyes. Because Louis was a very clever boy, he was allowed to go to school with the other children. He sat in the classroom every day and learnt a lot by just listening. But he still couldn’t read or write. When he was about 12, he was sent to a special school for the blind in Paris. At this school he learnt how to read night-writing. It used letters made up from twelve little raised dots. The army had developed this writing because they thought their soldiers would be able to use it to read messages in the dark. But it was very slow and too hard for them to learn. ©R.I.C. Publications Low Resolution Images Display Copy Louis decided to improve night-writing and to make it smaller so it would be easier and quicker to read. He changed all the letters, using only six dots, because he wanted people to be able to feel a whole letter with only one of their fingertips. The letter ‘w’ wasn’t used in the French alphabet, so Louis added another letter to cater for people who wanted to read English. Since then many other changes have been made. Today it is known as braille and it is used around the world to help people who can’t see to read. R.I.C. Publications ® Comprehension box 1 (128) Prim-Ed Publishing
