Customer Reviews

Sad but good (from an 8-year-old)

I like this book because it's a true story that happened 100 years ago. It's a sad story because Helen Keller was blind and deaf. It's a good story because after a while she understood what she was doing and she learned how to write on a typewriter.

Helen Keller!

Helen Keller is just like Laura Bridgman.They both had Scarlet Fever.But Laura Bridgman had it before Helen Keller.This book tells you about a real girl name Helen Keller.Helen Keller had Scarlet Fever when she was two years old.She was blind,mute and deaf after this sickness.Helen was crazy.She was jumping around braking things and she even hurted her little baby brother! Then Helen's parents called for help.This lady came.She was blind also.But she helped Helen to learn sign language and knowing what are the things she touched.It was really hard teaching Helen all the manners and everything.But at the end Helen was like another ordinary girl.
