A blind child shares her joys, struggles, and self-confidence.
In More Than What Eyes See, Maya explains what it's like to be blind. Sometimes she feels left out when she can't do all the things sighted kids can do. But then she remembers her many great qualities and abilities. She's curious, brave, confident, and creative. She reads Braille, plays sports with her friends, and enjoys painting and writing. With the help of her cane, Maya confidently navigates the world without sight--even if she occasionally wishes her eyes could see. Maya loves being who she is.
