Illustrated by
Jennifer Thermes.
This simple biography covers the landmarks in Keller's life: her childhood illness, the arrival of Anne Sullivan, and the moment at the water pump. But it also emphasizes Helen's love for dogs and implies that a particular reward for her learning to speak was verbal communication with her favorite dog, Belle. Lightly drawn illustrations in soft colors complete the warm narrative.
