SynopsisAt age two, Helen Keller became deaf and blind. She lived in a world of silence and darkness and she spent the rest of her life struggling to break through it. But with the help of teacher Annie Sullivan, Helen learned to read, write, and do many amazing things. This inspiring illustrated biography is perfect for young middle-grade readers. Black-and-white line drawings throughout, sidebars on related topics such as Louis Braille, a timeline, and a bibliography enhance readers' understanding of the subject.
It can provide children with a look at a famous person who was an unlikely hero but a brilliant hero non the less.
Children now a days have no idea who she was. They have too many electronic devices o spend the time we do reading autobiographies or biographies to learn about Helen Keller and those of our day and before.
