"It's making me feel quite emotional reading this.” Bookbinder, Charlotte Wainwright (@Charlotte Wainwright) has done it again! A tactile and beautifully bound version of A Fault In Our Stars, our first ever braille rebound is on its way to Lucy Edwards @British blind girl 👁🦮👩‍🦯 📖 Video description: Charlotte the bookbinder rebinds a braille copy of The Fault in Our Stars by John Green for Lucy Edwards. She takes the three braille volumes and rebinds them in black velvet, hammering in silver stars in spelling out the key themes of the book. Charlotte also makes a grey case, with a heart on one side representing the heartbreak of her sign loss and then stitches on the box that take you on a journey to the YouTube logo representing Lucy's content creator career. There are Lucy's favourite quotes in braille on the inside covers, and teardrops beads on the spine for each volume number. #bookbinding #afaultinourstars #johngreen #lucyedwards #BookTok
