It was very interesting how she came to understand that words exist, or that things have words associated with them. Also very interesting that she has memories of things before she even had words for them.It's explaned in the book that she wants to act as "normal" as possible, so that's why she describes things in color, or describes what she "saw," even though she doesn't remember any color. Southern Lady said THE STORY OF MY LIFE BY HELEN KELLER A MUST READ. THE STORY OF MY LIFE BY HELEN KELLER is an interesting book that shows how this BRIGHT GIRL learned to over come her blindness and deafness. Every School child should have this read to them to show that if you try, you and succeed.. Barbara Trongone said Interesting.

The Story of My Life is Helen Keller's own account of how she miraculously triumphed over blindness and deafness-and became one of the most inspiring and intriguing figures of our time.
