Dear President Obama:
My name is Ben, and I am eleven years old and live in Orange County, California. I have been reading and writing Braille since I was in preschool. My favorite books to read are Harry Potter books. The good thing about Braille is that I can read in the dark. I share my room with my two brothers, Sam and Rory. We are triplets. If there was not Braille, I wouldn't be able to do my school work, read books, do my math, or read manuals for my Braille technology. My life would be horrible without Braille.
Regards,
Benjamin Blatchford
