Torrefaction

Charlie is constantly frustrated by his inability to "read" books by himself.  We read to him a lot, but he wants to be able to lie on the floor and page through a board book, and in most cases he can't because the pages don't lay flat as he turns them--they keep flipping back.  This also makes it hard for him to turn to the particular page he wants.  He's not cognitively at a level to use an object to hold the page flat, or to use his other arm or prosthetic to do it. 

We're kicking around ideas--I'm probably going to be pasting binder-style offset tabs on a couple books to see if that helps, and we've asked the PT to ask her OT friends for ideas.  But most of the good tips on how to do things in unusual ways have come from the internet so far.

Googling "one-handed reading" produced a lot of hits, but mostly not the sort of links I was looking for. Duh.  *goes off to read erotica links*
