Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper examines how tactile books can be used to present grammar-related themes, more accurately prepositions. Tactile books are a special type of picture books for the visually impaired and are made in a way to stimulate the reader's other senses as well as sight. For the purpose of this paper I transformed a picture book called Around the House the Fox Chased the Mouse into a tactile one. The picture book's use of prepositions is the main focus of the paper. Cognitive grammar and its view on spatial orientation are also taken into account when discussing prepositions. In the final part of the paper the process of creating a tactile book is described and the finished tactile book is compared to the original picture book. Possibilities of further grammatically themed tactile books are discussed as well as the connection between congenital blindness and conceptual representation.
