Miss Spitfire: Reaching Helen Keller by Sarah Miller---Patricia

It’s about how Helen Keller’s teacher, Annie Sullivan, taught Helen that words have meanings. However her parents won’t let Annie discipline her because they don’t want to see her cry. Helen is blind and deaf which makes teaching her even harder. In the end the book is really about how Annie overcomes problems with Helen, and teaches her that everything has a meaning.
I liked it because it was a good story on how life is without words.
