Rosie is blind but was reading at three years old thanks, in part, to Braille books that were sent to her through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
I met Rosie at her elementary school in Clay County to see this little star in action. She has learned to see the world through other people’s eyes and if she doesn’t understand something she’s going to ask. She navigates first grade just like any other 6-year-old with curiosity and adventure. Rosie soaks it all in and learns her way.
Rosie learns in the classroom with the other kids at Rideout Elementary School. She just uses adapted academic materials when needed. Someone is always there to make sure she doesn’t miss a thing. She also has one on one time with Gina Woods, who has a master’s degree in visual disabilities. Among other things they practice reading and writing with her brailler.
“Greatest joy in my life to see her and to know that just by doing this, it opens doors for other kids. It helps understanding and helps people realize that our kids might be different but they’re so much the same,” says Williams. Rosie has a lot of personality and that’s easy to see and love. She’s proof that with a strong village the sky’s the limit.
