> 24 hourExcellent book. Helen Keller sees better than those of us who have eyes that can see and ears that can hear.

> 24 hourThis is a wonderful book and an inspiration to read. I especially enjoyed seeing how the relationship of this once bratty child progressed through and because of the fantastic work of her friend and teacher. She opened up the brilliant mind of Helen who was subsequently able to communicate with the world around her. The early loss of her two important senses of sight and hearing, were a mere minor obstacle to Helen as she heightened and made use of her remaining senses that most of us just take for granted.

> 24 hourThe writings of Helen Keller will always stand the test of time, and will always have something profound, for any and every generation. Her vivid and thought provoking explanation of how she interprets her environment is stunningly beautiful. It is filled with interesting historical tidbits, too. She describes the hands of some of the famous people she has met, such as Mark Twain, and what those hands said to her. This book is also a reminder that many people today need alternative ways to communicate. Most of us know someone with a low functioning loved one on the autism spectrum. I think it is important to remember that in Kellers time, she was considered low functioning. I pray we find the key to unlock autism, and Kellers life and writings offer hope that one day that door, like hers, will be unlocked.

> 24 hourThis book is amazing! To think what Helen Keller went through is almost mind boggling. She was a wonderful woman who stood her ground for what she believed in, despite not being able to hear or see. She overcame obstacles that would make your head spin. The book The World I Live In reveals so much about her life. Read it and you, too, will be amazed.

> 24 hourThe story starts off very well and captured my interest from the first page. Initial chapters that mark the beginning of the plot were really interesting to read, and I remember finding it hard to put down the novel. I’d recommend this novel to the history genre lovers because the author seems to have done a substantial research on the on the topic. Truly gripping.
