At Picture the Book, we believe every child should get to feel the magic of stories, no matter their abilities. Our picture books are written to be inclusive for young readers aged 5 to 8. Our writer, Sherri Eri, offers a unique perspective as a visually-impaired children’s book author. She weaves richer descriptions into her kids’ stories, allowing visually-impaired children to picture the illustrations in their minds.

Sherri's philosophy is simple yet meaningful —
"A picture paints a thousand words for young readers who can see. But for visually-impaired readers, just a few more words paint a thousand pictures."
