National Braille Press just came out with a braille version of the classic story Mike Mulligan & His Steam Shovel by Virginia Lee Burton. The story is about Mike and his trusty steam shovel, Mary Anne. They promise to dig a cellar in one day and if they fail they’ll do it for free. Can they complete the job in one day?

The Maestro Classics series also produces a version of this story set to jazz music. It’s a great way to introduce your kids to jazz and to audio books.

The two together (braille book and audio book) would make a great gift, don’t you think?
