The incident of the towel doll shows Helen was a very sensitive and imaginative girl, who in spite of being blind, deaf and knew all about the tiniest of details. The towel doll her aunt had gifted her was the most comical and shapeless thing she had ever touched. The doll had no nose, mouth, ears, or eyes. Helen did not like it. She had a bright idea to make the doll a little alive. She pulled two beads off her aunt's cape and asked her to sew them on doll's face where the eyes must have been. Helen liked the doll afterwards. This shows how sensitive Helen was to the details. It appeared she could see the defects and lacks with the eyes of her mind!
