Braille's Code

LOUIS BRAILLE

Louis Braille was from Paris France. He was born on January 4 in 1809. Louis became blind by accident, when he was 3 years old.  He loved music and he was a good student too, but his life conditions were so hard.  When he was adult, he worked for a long time to develop a useful writing and reading system. Finally, he could get an interesting code to write and read, addressed to blind people in 1829. Louis Braille signs help blind people to communicate independently, without needing print.

He got tuberculosis and died when he was 43 years old.

Louis proved that if you have the motivation, you can do incredible things!
