the story of my life

Answer 1

helen visited the Perkins Institute for the Blind in May of 1888.  For the first time in her life, she met other children who used the manual alphabet.  It was, she said, like coming home to her own country.  She visited places around Boston, and especially loved the Pilgrims' Plymouth Rock - because she could touch it.
