Nancy was Helen Keller’s favorite ragged doll that she took with her wherever she went to. One such place was to the Perks Institute in Boston that she visited along with her teacher Ms Anne Sullivan. Unfortuntely, the doll became dirty and the laundress decided to wash it for Helen Keller. But, when she did this, the rags came off and the doll became just a pile of rags and cotton. There was no other option for Helen but to bid goodbye to her doll.
