Representation matters. And sometimes, it looks a little bit magical. ✨🌙

Meet Claire de Luna, the newest addition to the Monster High Dolls! Claire is blind, uses a cane, has a prosthetic eye, and uses sunglasses to help with glare and UV sensitivity. She’s also a clairvoyant witch who can read constellations as easily as her fingers read Braille. 🔮

What makes Claire especially special to us is seeing her representation come to life right here at the Louisiana Association for the Blind.

Our own Chandra, who is blind, got to experience Claire for herself—reading her packaging in Braille and exploring a doll that represents an experience that is familiar to her. 🦯💜

Children who are blind or have low vision deserve to see themselves represented as the hero, the adventurer, the trendsetter, the dreamer—and yes, even the magical witch.

And with Halloween just around the corner, we couldn’t think of a more perfect time to celebrate a little spooky magic! 🖤🎃

Speaking of spooky… have you heard about LAB’s Eye Ball? 👁️✨ Our annual Halloween-themed fundraiser is coming up, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Because representation matters. Accessibility matters. And seeing yourself reflected in the world around you?

That’s pretty magical. 💜🌙

Dolly Parton was one of a kind. She will be missed worldwide. 💗

Dolly said, “Every child deserves a book.”

Ladies and gentlemen, she meant it! 📚✨

Making books accessible to children who are blind or have low vision was part of that mission. Braille Tales is a free program from the American Printing House for the Blind (APH), in partnership with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library (DPIL), that provides accessible books to young children who are blind or have low vision.

Dolly’s legacy is one of music, kindness, literacy, and making sure more children have the opportunity to experience the magic of a book.

Rest in peace, Dolly Parton. Thank you for helping make the world a little brighter—and a whole lot more accessible. 💗📚
