                               INTRODUCTION



     On behalf of I Can See Books, I would like to thank you for
taking the time to browse through our catalogue. I feel sure that
there are books of interest for all ages. Here is just a sampling
of what we have to offer:

     --Disney's Mickey Meets the Giant and Robert Munsch's Mud
Puddle and the Boy in the Drawer. In fact, we have the entire
Robert Munsch series available, as well as 3 dozen Disney's
classic short stories. We also have many books by other authors
which children from kindergarten through grade four will enjoy.

     --Hundreds of Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew and Tom Swift
mysteries, all classic books such as the Little House on the
Prairie series, The entire Wizard of Oz series, Black Beauty, and
all books written by Beverly Cleary, to name just a few. All of
these books will thrill young people from grade four through high
school.

     --Many adult books by such well known authors as John
Grisham, Robin Cook and Danielle Steel, to name just a few.

     --We have even written many innovative computer games and
utilities designed especially to work excellently with all DOS
speech synthesizers. A list of these programs can be found at the
very end of this catalogue.

     Before long, you will find yourself building a marvellous
Braille or audio book library, with books that can be read and
enjoyed over and over.

     We are constantly adding books to all sections of this
catalogue, but If there are any other books that you would like
to see us add to our catalogue in the future, please suggest
these titles to us. If we get several requests for these titles,
we guarantee that you will see them added to our catalogue. If
you have any other feedback about our books, we would love to
hear from you.



                               BRAILLE BOOKS



     All of our books are produced electronically, and this is
the reason why are prices are so affordable. A text scanner is
used to copy the print book into our computer, and a Braille
printer is used to emboss books in standard English grade 2
Braille. All Braille books are bound with the standard spiral
binding with clearly labelled covers. Books for children grades
k-4 are either Brailled with double spacing, to aid the child in
following the lines more easily, or are embossed with regular
line spacing on small pages to make the child feel a sense of
accomplishment every time he or she is able to turn another page
in his or her story book.



                    THE IMPORTANCE OF BRAILLE LITERACY



     We here at I Can See Books recognize the increasing
importance of Braille. For well over a century, Braille has been
the primary medium with which blind people have read books for
pleasure, conducted research projects, and communicated with
others. Then came the talking computer. Although the talking
computer is a marvellous tool for the blind person, allowing him
or her access to a vast world of information, we still can not
forget how important the ability to read Braille effectively and
efficiently is.

     To better understand the importance of Braille literacy, let
us compare Braille to standard print. A sighted person, no matter
how deep into computers, would never even consider decreasing his
or her usage of print. Print is his or her main medium of
communicating, of reading books and magazines, and the computer
would not affect the use of written communication in the least.

     So, then, why should a blind person be forced to give up
reading Braille as much or entirely just because it is less
expensive and easier to produce a book on the talking computer
rather than in Braille? After all, nothing can replace the pure
pleasure and joy of picking up a Braille book, just as a sighted
person would pick up a good pocketbook, and taking it everywhere
with you. A Braille book does not need packs of spare batteries
to allow you to read it, nor does it ever develop mechanical
difficulties. A Braille book is always there for you to read as
many times as you wish, and Braille books can be collected and
built into a library of your very own.

     In short, we believe that Braille literacy is every bit as
important to the blind person as ink-print literacy is to the
sighted person. If the blind are supposed to compete on terms of
equality with their sighted peers, any blind person should not be
limited in choosing what books he or she would like to read just
because they are unavailable or very expensive to obtain. Books,
in whatever medium, be it Braille, audio cassette or standard
print, always have been, and will continue to be, a major source
of education and entertainment for many years to come.

     It is our primary goal here at I Can See Books to help
ensure that everyone has access to whatever books they would like
to read. In addition, we realize the importance of producing
high-quality, low-cost Braille and audio books, and making them
readily available to anyone who would like to read them.



                                AUDIO BOOKS



     Our audio books are recorded on cassette tape with the
newest and most modern speech synthesizer on the market. Worried
that the recording will sound monotonous? It does not. I have
read over one thousand books with this speech synthesizer, which
possesses truly human qualities when it comes to narrating a
book. It has every bit as much expression and the ability to hold
your interest as does a talking book recorded by a sighted
reader. The voice you will hear when listening to our talking
books is that of a friendly man, named Perfect Paul, whom you
will very quickly become attached to as your narrator. In fact,
we even have a special kids' voice which we use to record our
books for very young children. We have chosen to produce our
audio books in this manner to make them as affordable as
possible. If you compare the price of our audio books with that
of people who charge at least $6 an hour to record the printed
word onto cassette, you will think twice about our talking books. 

     We charge $8 for each six-hour cassette, recorded on the
standard four-track cassette used by the Library of Congress for
all of its talking books. Yes, you read that correctly! For an
entire book that is 6 hours in length or less, you pay only $8 to
have us record it onto cassette and Braille label the tape.



                               SERIES PRICES



     In many cases, it is cheaper to purchase all books written
by one author in our catalogue. When a series price is available,
it will be listed before the author's entries, along with the
discounted price and a description of the series.



                          TRANSCRIPTION SERVICES



     Tired of being unable to read the printed word? I Can See
Books offers very reasonable transcription services for all
pocketbooks of any length onto cassette tape. To make this
service affordable, any children's or adults' pocketbook we
transcribe is scanned into our computer. We proofread the scanned
text copy to correct any major scanning errors, as well as
running the book through several up-to-date scanning correction
programs designed to fix the most common scanning errors.
However, such rare imperfections as occasional I's interpreted as
1's are still present in the scanned copy. Please note that
handwritten material never scans. The typical pocketbook has a 98
percent accuracy rate, and is perfect for reading on cassette.

     Here's how our transcription service works: you name a book
which you wish to be recorded on audio cassette. The chances are
that we will be able to obtain a copy of this book. If the book
you wish to be transcribed is not available to us--a very
unlikely event--we will ask that you mail us the book to be
transcribed. After the book is scanned into our computer, we
record it on audio cassette in the same way that our audio books
are produced. We do not Braille books that you have asked to be
transcribed, because we would not want to reproduce any
imperfections in Braille.

     The cost of this service, which gives you access to ANY
pocketbook on the market, is nominal. We charge $8 for
reproducing the book into alternate format, plus $8 for each six-
hour cassette, recorded with your book. Almost all children's and
youths' books will easily be recorded on one cassette, and almost
all adult pocketbooks will be short enough to be recorded on two
cassettes. Hence, to have a pocketbook transcribed, you will
seldom be paying more than $24 to have the book sent to you on
cassette tape.

     We also will Braille or record any text material on a
computer disk for $.30 per Braille page. If you wish to find the
price of reproducing text on a computer disk in either Braille or
audio cassette before the order is finalized, please specify this
when you send us the disk containing the text you wish us to
reproduce. Upon receipt of your transcribed talking book, you
will also receive an invoice, billing you for the cost of
transcription and production.



                           ENCYCLOPEDIA ARTICLES



     Our service of producing any article from the World Book
Encyclopedia, 1993 version, gives you access to research
information from animals to zoos, from birds to x-rays, and so
on. We will produce any article of your choice in either Braille
or on audio cassette. To request an article, simply send us the
topic which you require information on, along with the format
which you would like the article to be sent to you in.

     The length of an encyclopedia article depends on how broad a
topic you are requesting information on. If you wish to find
information about animals, for instance, the article is likely to
be 80 Braille pages. But if you are requesting information on a
specific topic such as sparrows or seals, the article is likely
to be only about 5 to 10 pages in length.

     The price for this service is very reasonable. We will
record any article, regardless of its length, on audio cassette
for an $8 fee. Since articles vary in length, we can not specify
an exact price of reproducing an article in Braille. If you wish
a price quote before we proceed with your order, please specify
this when sending your request.



                            PERSONALIZING BOOKS



     Our books make tremendous gift items for all occasions. If
you wish to order a book for someone special, we will include a
personalized message at the beginning of the book for an
additional fee of $1. We will add personal dedications in all
books in our catalogue and in any books which you ask to be
transcribed onto audio cassette.



                            A BRIEF HISTORY OF

                              I CAN SEE BOOKS



     Ever since the 1980's, I Can See Books has been providing
the Braille-reading community with high-quality books. Our first
catalogue contained 220 books, and the amount of books available
from us has been increasing ever since.

     We are now back with a new look and have a greater selection
than ever of children's, youths' and adults' books, as well as
many speech-friendly computer programs.



                           ORDERING INFORMATION



     Orders are accepted over the phone, in Braille, cassette,
computer disk, standard print, or via electronic mail.

     As with all other mail order book stores, pre-payment is

CHILDREN'S

                          BOOK-OF-THE-MONTH-CLUB




     You can subscribe to our Children's Book-of-the-month-club,
which provides the very best children's books already selected
for your convenience. Every month, we will send you another book,
which your child will come to look forward to. The special thing
with this club is that your child never will know what book to
expect to read the next month, and thus will be introduced to
many stories which he or she may not have yet read.

     The prices of subscribing for one year to this club are as
follows: 12 Braille books: $95. 12 audio books: $95. 12 book-
tapes: $190.



                         LIST OF CHILDREN'S BOOKS



     The following is a list of the children's books that we
carry at the present time. Please note that two smaller sections,
Holiday Books and Religious Books, follow the main list of
children's books.

     All books for children, ages preschool through grade two,
are either Brailled with the double-spaced method or are brailled
with regular spacing on small pages. Books for older children are
embossed with the standard single-spaced method. We charge $8 for
all of these Braille books.

     If you would like a printed sheet, containing the text, no
pictures or illustrations, interleaved with each Braille page of
the book, the price for each book is $16. This allows a sighted
parent, teacher or older sibling to read along with a child, so
that both sighted and blind children and their parents and
teachers can enjoy reading these wonderful stories.

     We also produce all of these children's books on audio tape.
To hold the child's attention while listening to the talking
book, we can record the book with a special electronic kids'
voice that children will love. All of these audio children's
books cost $8. When ordering any children's books on audio
cassette, please specify whether you wish the standard man's
narrating voice or the kids' voice to be used when recording the
story onto cassette.

     If you would like to purchase a book-tape, a Braille book
with an accompanying cassette tape copy of the book, you should
specify this when you order. The price for all children's book-
tapes is $16.
