Many people know the story of Helen Keller, but few know about the life of her “miracle worker”. This photobiography shines a light on Sullivan’s story, enabling readers to truly understand her extraordinary achievements and to fully grasp what she meant to Helen. Emotional and inspiring, it should be read alongside Sarah Miller's Miss Spitfire.
