“Classic” Colouring
Adapted coloring
This adapted colouring file for severely visually impaired children can be used in 2 ways: printing with conventional ink, or printing to inflate the ink with a PIAF oven. In the 2nd case, the tactile outlines will help children locate the areas to be colored.

3) Alternative texts for images
During the development of the digital book, an alternative text was included for each image so that blind readers could also access the content of the images. Each alternative text is read by a computer-generated voice using assistive software. If you prefer to read the texts aloud yourself for young blind children, you can download them in PDF format.
