Welcome to KidsZone!

Welcome to the Illinois KidsZone, a website for kids in the talking book program.

This site has links to great books to read, great sites to go to,and information for teachers, librarians, parents, and kids about the talking book program.

The talking book program is open to anyone of any age who cannot read or hold a regular print book because of a visual problem, a physical challenge, or a learning disability.

The program is nationwide and everything is free! If you would like an application and more information on the program, call the Illinois State Library Talking Book and Braille Service at 1-800-665-5576, option 5. You can also email us for more information! We will send you an application, brochures, and catalogs of books available.
