Sorry Cindy, I am completely blind. I can't help by describing the illustrations. I, however, can translate. *G* You tell me what it is you want to say in Spanish and I will be more than happy to write it for you.
I don't really have the time or patience for validating. I don't mind scanning a book, but I just can't sit there and validate. Besides, my computer starts acting crazy when I tell it to spellcheck...we are currently at war with each other. *L*
Let me know...I am usually around at this time. *L* Hugs, Maithe maithe007@xxxxxxxxxxxxx----- Original Message ----- From: "Grandma Cindy" <popularplace@xxxxxxxxx>

No captions. Anastasia is talking about a children's book. That's the problem for me. My Spanish isn't good enough to describe illustrations in Spanish. If you can validate the book if she scans it, that would be super great. She's scanned the English-language book and says she can get a Spanish-language copy from the library to scan. The title in English is Mama, Do You Love Me? I looked it up and my library system does have the Spanish-language copy. It's about Inuits, and I think would be a valuable edition to the booksharecollection. Did you say you have some vision, or was that someone else? If your library has a Spanish-language copy and you're willing to validate it and describe the illustrations even minimally, that would be great. Or we can work together. I can validate the text, and if you can describe the pictures you can send the descriptions to me and I can insert them. If you're totally blind, I can send you brief descriptions in English and you can send them back to me in Spanish. Maybe the illustrations aren't necessary for enjoyment of the story. Sometimes they're only illustrative of the text and don't really add anything. At other times they do. Cindy Cindy --- maithe007 <maithe007@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrotcindy, If you tell me what the caption is in English, I could tell you how to write it in Spanish. I speak and write Spanish, but I do not read it.
