My life story, by Helen Keller

The book discusses the life story of Helen Keller (1880–1968), that American girl who was blind and deaf, who lost her sight and hearing completely at the age of nineteen months due to an illness that afflicted her, but that did not prevent her from learning and obtaining the highest academic degrees from the top colleges in the United States of America, and she was thus the first blind person to obtain a bachelor's degree. The credit for this goes to her teacher Miss "Anne Sullivan," who began her journey in teaching Helen Keller when Helen was seven years old. She taught her sign language, which is speaking by tapping on the fingertips, and the reading method for the blind, which is the Braille method. The book also covers the messages Helen Keller sent to her family members and friends, many of whom were famous figures in literature and science. From these messages, it is clear the refined language Helen Keller used, which even surpassed her teacher's language. The credit for this also goes to her teacher Miss Sullivan, who would select high-quality literature for Helen to read, which influenced her writing style. She would encourage Helen, when she wrote her letters, to rewrite them multiple times if her expression was inconsistent, so that the message would have the appropriate expression. Helen Keller published eighteen books, among her most famous works are: "The World I Live In," "The Song of the Stone Wall," "Out of the Darkness," "Love and Peace," and "Helen Keller in Scotland." Her books have been translated into fifty languages. Miss Sullivan encouraged Helen to write her life story. She did so, and it was published in a magazine and received wide acclaim. The book discusses her life story written by herself. Translation: Dr. Anwar Youssef. Number of pages: 480.
