By Lorena A. Hickok
Have you every thought about how it felt to be deaf and blind at the same time? This a true story about Helen Keller. She was deaf and blind. She lived in Tuscumbia, Alabama. She was born with a sickness that made her blind and deaf. She was alone in the dark until her teacher Annie Sullivan came along. Annie taught Helen Braille. Helen was no longer in the dark. Helen was able to communicate with other people.
I like this book because it teaches me about the blind and deaf. Also, it is a happy and sad biography.
I think the author was trying to get through to us that Helen Keller had to use patience, effort, and confidence. We should use those lifeskills in our lives too.

One problem I have with the book, though, is not letting whole letters speak for themselves, revealing more of the political discussions that seem to have been a big part of both women's lives and their attraction to one another. Were they lovers? They were certainly "in love," and regardless of where they drew the physical line, this book reveals foremothers any woman, lesbians included, should be proud to claim.

I must say, however, Ms. Hickok left me a little cold. I do not think their relationship could endure in this day and age, even as we seemingly embrace a more open view of bi and homosexuality. Lorena, on her emotional rollercoaster, would have been a considerable liability for anyone of Eleanor's public stature.
