About this audiobook
Have you ever wondered how a blind person pours a cup of coffee? Or how they and their guide dog know when it's safe to cross a busy road?
When Lois Strachan lost her sight at the age of 21 years she had to learn the answers to these and countless other questions of how to live as a blind person in a sighted world.
In this delightfully quirky and entertaining book Lois shares some of the secrets she discovered about how to live an “ordinary” life in an extraordinary way despite her disability.
The second edition of A Different Way of Seeing contains the complete original book with an additional 30% new content – many more stories and updated information that add to this humorous and enlightening perspective of what it’s really like living life as a blind person.
