    About this ebook

    The inspiring story of a girl whose world never stopped growing.

    As a baby, Helen Keller lost her hearing and sight to a rare illness. For five years, the world around her was a mystery. Then one day, her teacher taught Helen a single name, and her world started to grow. She went on to graduate from college, write books, and travel the country, speaking out for people with disabilities. Helen Keller's world never stopped growing. And her story is a reminder that behind every name is something precious, waiting to be discovered.
