Accessible musical and literary project - Stories of João Balão - October 28

Updated : 26/10/2020

Stories of João Balloon | Green boy holds huge balloon of the same color.

The National Institute for Rehabilitation invites to the presentation of the book Stories of John Balloon, to be held next Wednesday 28 October at 3 p.m.

This book, by Pedro Pestana, is an accessible musical and literary project, available in audiobook and braille. This work sensitizes us to the issues of accessibility and how often their lack prevents children with disabilities from accessing books and the experiences that their reading allows. It also shows that music is a therapeutic resource in the treatment of children with disabilities.

Starting at 3:00 p.m., and for about 40 minutes, join us at the Zoom Platform e INR You Tube Channel.
