Helen Keller was born on June 27, 1880. At nineteen months she became blind and death by an unknown illness now guessed as Scarlet fever, ruining her perfect health. She became wild and restless growing up. She became spoiled. Her parents loved her but they really just wanted her to leave them alone. They give her a treat when she throws a tantrum but they still look for someone that may be able to help her. Helen was not used to NOT getting her way.
At the age of six, she met her miracle worker, her teacher, Anne Sullivan. The teacher taught her to read and write and she learned that Helen was very smart in the inside, but since she had never been taught to speak, she had no way of showing this brightness. Helen learned so quickly because of the teacher, Annie became famous and soon helped those like her.
