Story 2. Bob.
Bob likes to play ball.
He bounces his ball off the house and runs to catch it.
Sometimes, he misses.
But most of the time, he doesn't.
Is there anything special about that?
Yes.
Bob is blind.
He has a ball with a beeper in it.
Bob explains to his best friend Tim, I listen for the beeper.
This tells me which way to run to catch the ball.
Bob's books are written in Braille.
He uses his fingertips to feel and read the writing.
When I grow up, I want to be a policeman, says Bob.
I want to be the dispatcher—the one who tells the other policemen where to go.
Tim likes his friend, for he never lets his blindness get in the way of his dreams.
