How Educators Can Request Little Dandelion Press as an Approved Vendor

Finding instructional materials that truly support access, inclusion, and meaningful learning can be challenging — especially for students with cortical visual impairment (CVI), low vision, and diverse sensory or developmental needs.

At Little Dandelion Press, we create books with these learners at the center of our design process. Our resources are CVI‑informed, visually accessible, and thoughtfully developed to support early literacy, language development, and inclusive instruction.

The good news? Many school districts allow educators to request new instructional vendors when materials support student learning goals.

Below is a simple overview of how to begin the process.

Step 1: Begin with Your Special Education Team

Start by reaching out to your campus or district Special Education office. This may include a Diagnostician (DO), Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI), Special Education Coordinator, or Program Director.

These professionals understand student needs, instructional access, and district processes and can help guide your request forward.

Step 2: Ask About the Vendor Approval Process

Once educational need is established, ask who manages approved vendor requests. In many districts, this step transitions to the purchasing or procurement department, which handles vendor setup and documentation.

Step 3: Explain the Instructional Value

When advocating for Little Dandelion Press materials, it can be helpful to highlight that our books:

• Are designed to support visual access and reduced complexity
• Reinforce early literacy and concept development
• Are appropriate for classrooms, libraries, and therapy environments
• Support inclusive instruction for a wide range of learners

Clear, accessible materials help students engage, understand, and thrive.

Step 4: Reach Out for Support

You don’t have to navigate this process alone. Little Dandelion Press is happy to provide product details, documentation, or support as you move through your district’s approval process.

If you’re unsure who to contact or what information is needed, we’re just an email away.
