Helen Keller (Scholastic Biography) Review

As a child I was unable to read a chapter book until I was in the forth grade. I have dislexia though I have learned some stratigies for overcoming it. I still have the copy my teacher gave to me copy righted 1969. This book inspired me and it was because of this book that I owe so much. After reading this book in elementary school I began reading more books about Helen Keller as well as other Famous Americans who for their time as children were considered "dumb or dunces". It was this book that opened doors for me that had been closed. I am now an avid reader as well as an educatior of young children with special needs. I am now 34 years old. It is my hope that this book will continue to inspire childre for a very long time. As a companion to this book you may want to consider Dear Dr. Bell...Your friend, Helen Keller by Judith St. George.(a book of friendship and love between the two of them.)

All About Helen Keller - Kate C. Deasy - Bay Area, USA
This story is about a girl named Helen Keller and how she lived her life as a blind and deaf person. Helen Keller's teacher was Annie Sullivan and she taught Helen to read and to speak. Helen Keller wanted to go to Harvard, but Harvard would not accept Helen. She ended up going to Radcliffe, a well-known women's college. She graduated with honors in 1904. Helen Keller traveled all over the US and gave speeches about blind and deaf people.
Helen Keller loved the outdoors and she especially liked to swim, something I like to do as well. My favorite part of this book was how the author described how Helen became blind and deaf. It was interesting to me because I want to be a doctor when I grow up. I think this was an excellent book because I love biographies. I learned Helen Keller really was. I would recommend this book to readers who love biographies. KAZ

Excellent! - Linda R. Brosey -
This book was used in our middle school resource room. The students thoroughly enjoyed the book and it was a great tool to teach them about the world of the blind and deaf. We had additional activities that included practicing the deafblind manual alphabet and feeling braille greeting cards. The book is very readable, has photographs, and was an exciting experience for our students. I would also recommend using the Walt Disney movie, The Miracle Worker, as a follow-up.
