Six-year-old Helen Keller was like a wild bird in a cage. Her mind was bright. Her body was strong. But she could not communicate with anyone. She was blind and deaf.
Then one wonderful day Anne Sullivan came to stay. She made signs in Helen's hand. She taught her words. "I was born again," said Helen.
Helen and "Teacher" spent many happy hours riding, swimming - and learning. Helen went on to study at the Perkins school and later at Radcliffe College. She even learned to speak!
After graduation Helen turned to writing and learning. With Teacher at her side, Helen worked to get special schools and libraries for the blind and deaf. "I must teach people what you taught me," Helen told Anne, "that children must not be different because they are blind and deaf. They can learn to work and be happy."


This book is still in good condition.
It is a former library book so it still has things on it that a library book would have.
Pages do have some staining on them
Pages are still tight.
The edges of the covers have some areas that have been worn through exposing the book boards.
Covers and edges show signs of wear.
The dust jacket still has the plastic on it from the library. Both show signs of wear.
