Helen Keller was one of the great examples to the society. She was born in 1890.
She achieved her goals and fulfilled her dreams despite being a disabled woman. She was a blind and deaf girl. This was because she was struck by a deadly disease when she was just 9 months old. Being both, it was difficult or nearly impossible for her to live life like others did. Learning for her was a difficult task.
She had never listened to nor seen anything. Still, she made her way through. All this credit could be given to the miracle worker, her teacher, Miss Anne sullivan. Miss Anne Sullivan was a great help to Helen. She was her mentor. She taught her the alphabets and words and everything later on. She was there with her on every step of her life. The first word Miss Sullivan taugh Helen was the word D-O-L-L. Soon, Helen progressed. The first complete sentence Helen said was "It is warm". Her speech was not very clear and not everyone could understand it. It was really difficult for Helen to cope up.
Many times, she became depressed but didn't give up. Helen was even of plagiarism. She was so innocent that she didn't even remember that she had read the story which she wrote. That incident had instilled a fear in Helen. Due to that, Helen used to write very less. Helen changed many schools from various cities and travlled a lot. Learning was a fun process for her. She loved Literature, history, geography, French and German. The subject which she disliked was Arithmetic. Also, she saw exams as the majot bugbears of her life. She often said that they didn't understand how difficult it was for Helen to attempt an exam. She used to patiently listen to everything Miss Sullivan told her while her lectures.
She had a great connection with nature. Other than books, she also did canoeing, sailing and swimming. She had an avid interest in all the things.
She grew up and at the age of 21 she wrote her autobiography 'The story of my life'.

Summary of ' THE STORY OF MY LIFE ' :
Born on 27 June 1880, Helen Keller was a unusual girl. She got striken with a deadly fever when she was just 19 months old. It left a deep scar on her. The scar of deafness, blindness and other life formalities. She was detached from the care and love of nature.
She became furious in nature as she was not able to do what other could. This worsen her physcial and mental state. Soon, after a meet with Dr. Bell, her family was directed to deaf and blind education. Perkins institute made a great path in her life which was constructed by her guide (and all) Mrs. Anne Sullivan.
She lived with her from Helen's age of 8 years. She helped Helen with her secret ability of sense. She made it her 6th sense. Anne knew her ability of thinking and worked on it everyday, every hour, every minute by giving her tasks.
This book written by Helen Keller describes her journey of life from her birth to 21 years of age. She is taking her higher education when she starts writing it. Between her serious issues, she faced and tackled, she mentioned some very comedy anecdotes and some very beautiful quotes of understand life, understang nature and understanding love and care. Even if she he deprived with her regular senses, she makes out meanings and definations of all the things she touch and she feel.
She tells us of her father, mother, sister and various other relatives. The middle chaptes deals with her efforts to cope up with the children of her age and become independent. the later chapters (interesting ones) deals with her problems, her self-sufficiency, her behaviour and her thinking for a college life. Maybe she was in search of life patner or soul mates as many novels say about college life. She also describes her innovative ideas her likings and dislikings. She loves to do outdoors.
Last two chapters deal with the books she read and her feelings and respect for them. But in the last one she tells of her friends who helped her to achieve success in life and who made her life self-respectful. Majorly, she talks about Bishop Brooks in it, who taught her religion of love and care.
