NOREEN GRICE BRINGS HOPE TO VISUALLY IMPAIRED:
Simply Consistent is Proud to represent Noreen Grice who authored Touch the Invisible Sky.
Below is an excerpt from an article explaining Noreen's impact on those who thought they could not.....
Chelsea Cook, a high school student in Newport News, Virginia, got her family to drive four hours to Baltimore for the new book's unveiling. She says Noreen Grice's astronomy books are "really interesting, you know, the visuals are easy to read, and they're just cool to look at."
Cook says she has enough vision to see a full moon, but not stars. Still, she wants to study astrochemistry and astrophysics. And she's fascinated by the idea of space exploration.
Her ultimate career goal? To become the first "blind astronaut." It will be "a lot to work towards," she says, "but I think it's possible."
Simply Consistent, Inc. is pleased to announce that Astronomy educator and Accessibility Specialist, Noreen Grice, also of You Can Do Astronomy, was at the Perkins School for the Blind on February 2nd teaching instructors of the visually impaired how to make astronomy accessible. Most of the instructors had used Grice's first book Touch the Stars with their students. Grice showed the instructors different ways to teach topics such as, moon phases, seasons, star patterns and the solar system.
