Book Reviews of Helen Keller: The Story of My Life (Dover Thrift Editions)
Book Review: A Rare Perspective
Summary: 4 Stars
How often can we really delve into the life of the blind? When we ourselves are not blind. How about understanding what it's like to be deaf? Or what about living most of life unable to speak?Helen Keller experienced them all and lived with all of these conditions in a most miraculous way. This is a woman who overcame many obstacles.
I remember watching a video of the Miracle Worker in 7th grade and have always been inspired by the story of Anne Sullivan breaking through the wall that surrounded her young student, Helen Keller.
This particular book gives you the story from the other side. I can only imagine what it was like to be young Helen Keller trapped in a dark, soundless world unable to speak. Her short autobiography is stunningly optimistic. This is a woman who met challenges and took them head on.
Her story is one of triumph in the face of set backs. She never let her condition be a stumbling block but always a stepping stone.
This story is a marvelous picture of the many accomplishments of Helen Keller. It is called "The Story of My Life". It should be called, "The Story of My Remarkable Life".
