Question

Describe helen's visit to boston in may 1888

Answer 1

When Helen undertook the journey to Boston with Miss Sullivan, she was no longer the resilient, stubborn and excited child of two years ago, who had taken the journey to Baltimore, and hungered for everyone's attention. She sat calmly with Miss Sullivan, as Anne described to her all the sights and sounds of the journey. Miss Sullivan described to her the beautiful Tennessee river, the cotton fields, the African American people waving to the train, who also brought candy and popcorn balls to them etc. For Helen it was a memorable journey which she took with her doll Nancy and Miss Sullivan, and for her visiting Boston, was like a fairytale come true.
