Shlenae, July 4, 2008 (view all comments by Shlenae)
I am absolutely inspired by Helen Keller and what she has accomplished in her life. I loved the pictures to bring the words more to life in this book. I can't see how anyone who reads this book or any of her other books or seen her story in film cannot be moved. Anne Sullivan is also a inspiration to many as well. I can't say enough about this book.
