Louis Braille was born on January 4, 1809. He became blind when he was a baby. He was playing in his dad’s shop and he found a sharp tool that he saw his dad use. Louis was playing with it and it fell in his eye. One eye became infected and got blind. It spread in his other eye and he became blind.

I think he is important because he made Braille and taught blind kids. When he was dead, they made Braille. He only used six-dots in one letter.

I think he changed the world and helped blind people. Louis made it easy for blind kids and adults. He taught them how to read and play instruments. And he was kind to others who deserved it. He deserved it soooooo soooooo much. He expected people to be kind to him. He respected if some one made a mistake. He believed in himself.
