#ConflictedWorlds Day 4: #PersonVsDisability - In just a few pages, both author and illustrator captured the essence of Helen‘s travails and triumphs from childhood to old age, her disappointments and her steadfastness. I was able to catch a glimpse of her refreshing wit while she performed on stage, as well as marveled at her determined and willful spirit through her many advocacies. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-7uT

This book was inspiring and amazing. It was published in 2012, and is a biography/true story of the life of Helen Keller. Although one may know some general facts about Helen Keller upon hearing her name, this book elaborates on this amazing woman's life including the struggles and successes of her life.
This book had beautiful and almost true to life illustrations. By this meaning that many of them looked as though they were photographs.

Biography. Again another great introductory book into biographies and would be great read aloud.

Helen‘s Big World by Doreen Rappaport and illustrated by Matt Tavares, 2012. Another wonderful biography by Doreen Rappaport that breathes new life into an already poignant story about an amazing woman.
