I really enjoyed this book. Helen Keller has always been someone who I have thought of as an extremely influential person. I like how the book gives a great overview of Helen Keller's life in words that are easy to understand for a wide age range of audiences. I also enjoyed the illustrations in this book. They did a great job accompanying what was being said by the author on each page, making the book easy to understand. I also like how although this book is a biography, there were not too many dates or statistics in the book. Sometimes I feel that biographies are overloaded with this type of information which can make it less enjoyable to read. This book did not include this which made it a lot more approachable. I also really enjoyed the message of the book which primarily served to explain Helen Keller's life, and highlight how Keller overcame many of her adversities. She was able to do things that she once thought were impossible. Keller's story also encourages people everywhere who have hearing or sight impairments to dream big and realize that they are able to accomplish so much.… (plus d'informations)
