Through Talen's eyes : a visit to grandma's house / by Turner, Rosebud Alford.;
"Through Talen's Eyes: A Visit to Grandma's House" is a delightful story about the fun a little boy and his grandmother have whenever he comes to visit. A unique feature of this story is that the boy's grandmother is blind. This fact, however, never interferes with the games they play and the fun they have. The book identifies and celebrates many ways the grandmother is able to see things through her grandson's eyes as they interact and play together. Talen learns to appreciate his grandmother's insights as well. A reading awareness section is found in the back of the book. This can be used as a reading game that will encourage conversation between the child being read to and the adult reading the book. "Through Talen's Eyes: A Visit to Grandma's House" will delight every child!"--Back cover
