In The Story of My Life, author and activist Helen Keller recounts her early education with Anne Sullivan from the Perkins Institute for the Blind. An illness left Keller deaf and blind at eighteen months, and she's unable to communicate until Sullivan teaches her the manual alphabet.
Sullivan's then-unorthodox teaching methods prove a success. Keller learns how to use the manual alphabet and from there learns how to read.
Keller describes a number of trips she takes with her family. On one of the trips, she goes to Boston, where she meets other blind children at the Perkins Institute. On another, she learns how to toboggan.
Keller enrolls at the Cambridge School for Young Ladies in preparation for her entrance exams to Radcliffe. She goes to college, but finds it less romantic than she imagined.
