A segment of Helen Keller's book The Story of My Life.

Keller’s best-selling autobiography recounts her early years with her teacher, Anne Sullivan, and the way Sullivan first taught her words using the word “water” as her teaching tool. Keller’s life story was dramatized in the play “The Miracle Worker” in 1957, and a movie version in 1962.
