Helen Keller

       Did you know that I once locked my teacher in her upstairs room? Because of a sickness I Helen Keller was deaf and blind. I was born June 27 1880 I lived in Tuscumbia, Alabama. Anne Sullivan was my teacher. Anne Helped me communicate with others with sign language and later by Braille. I went to high school and in 1906 I went to Radcliff Collage. After collage I traveled to 5 continents, met 10 presidents, acted in a movie, helped many children and won an award. I cared about everybody and helped all the people I could. So remember that just because your different doesn’t mean that you can’t make a difference!
