Just a thought.
I'm pretty sure, given that she's done photo ops with children charities, that she's AWARE that children with disabilities exist.

It will be easier, I think, to send the books all off to 1DollarScan and OCR them.

@ucfgrad93, I'm sorry I offended you, but as a disabled person it's a little tiring to have people keep trying to "solve" your problem as if one is so stupid they aren't aware that audio books exist. So it's kind of lose-lose: if I try to educate people that it's more complicated than that, they take offense; if I say "oh, thank you!" it encourages the idea that disabled people are too stupid to navigate their own disabilities.
