Helen Keler

The Life of Helen Keller The story of Helen Keller is the story of a normal child who, at the age of 18 months, was suddenly shut off from the world but who, against overwhelming odds, waged a slow, hard, but successful battle to re-enter that same world. The near-savage little deaf and blind mute grew into a highly intelligent and sensitive woman who wrote, spoke, and labored incessantly for the betterment of others. So powerful …

…the organizations for the blind and deaf. In his eulogy, Senator Lister Hill of Alabama expressed the feelings of the whole world when he said of Helen Keller, "She will live on, one of the few, the immortal names not born to die. Her spirit will endure as long as man can read and stories can be told of the woman who showed the world there are no boundaries to courage and faith." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
