Learn how Louis Braille revolutionized the lives of the blind! After an accident in his father's workshop, Louis lost his sight at a young age. In the early 19th century, such a handicap made it hard to get an education and become part of society. Luckily, Louis proved resourceful and would not admit defeat. He entered the National Institute for Blind Youth and was only twelve when he began conceiving the famous alphabet that bears his name. Louis didn't know it yet, but his invention was about to transform the world.
