Beschreibung

Helen Keller's superb autobiography takes us through the childhood and early life of a woman who was to become one of the United States most celebrated activists and lecturers. First published in 1903, Keller's early memoirs reveal her upbringing which was very much in the spirit of American tradition. Being both deaf and blind, Keller's astounding rise to a position of great prominence and fame in society gave inspiration to countless individuals suffering from sensory disabilities. Keller details her childhood and the character of her close family members. Both of her parents receive detailed descriptions; her father, a former Confederate officer, demonstrated to Keller the importance of publicity at an early age by editing the North Alabamian newspaper. Helen's training in sign language enabled her to communicate, and Keller was duly dispatched to a specialist doctor who referred her to the young Anne Sullivan, who became a lifelong friend and mentor to the young Keller.

Portrait

"The Story of My Life" by Helen Keller was first published in 1903. Her stories and her accomplishments are truly inspirational.
Helen's life was a challenge every day, but in this book we discover that is not how she tells the story at all. Helen's describes her life as an opportunity to learn something new every day with joy and excitement!
Helen Keller (1880-1968) suffered a terrible illness at the age of 19 months that left her blind and deaf. Shortly after she became mute. With her dedicated teacher, Anne Sullivan, by her side they were unstoppable. Limitations for Helen were broken when little by little each day with her persistence and courage.
In this classic autobiography Helen Keller recounts the first 22 years of her life and some of the magical moments she encounters. The first time she made the connection between objects and words was when she was at the water pump and made the connection between "water" and the cold water flowing over her hands.
Look inside her life with the beautiful section of the book completely dedicated for letters written by Helen Keller, and responses she received.
