Then you'll be introduced to the Braille alphabet; and; step by step; you'll learn to recognize which dots make up each letter; how capital letters are formed; and how to write numbers in Braille.

Question: Does this teach UEB?
Answer: This book teaches uncontracted Braille and some punctuation so this is generic for UEB or other Braille. We do carry for in-depth books for UEB instruction, but this is a good starter.
