| Summary |
Helen was a young girl everyone believed was too deaf, dumb and blind to be helped. A child with the inability to speak or comprehend the world around her. She was saved by Annie Sullivan, a persistent and outspoken teacher who came into Helen's life. Together they accomplished the impossible and taught one another the values of patience, tolerance and compassion. They embark on an amazing and triumphant journey that made the name Helen Keller synonymous with the education of the deaf and blind around the world. |
