Zulay‘s difficulty facing learning how to use her cane ahead of the field day marathon is conveyed thoughtfully. I enjoyed the art style and overall pace of this book. #PictureBook #DisabilitiesRep

Six Dots: A Story of Young Louis Braille was written by Jen Bryant. This book shares the story of Louis Braille and how he lost his sight and then invented an alphabet. His invention gave blind kids all over the world a new way to navigate the world. This book is so inspiring!
#ConflictedWorlds Day 4: #PersonVsDisability - In just a few pages, both author and illustrator captured the essence of Helen‘s travails and triumphs from childhood to old age, her disappointments and her steadfastness. I was able to catch a glimpse of her refreshing wit while she performed on stage, as well as marveled at her determined and willful spirit through her many advocacies.

I borrowed this for my unit on Helen Keller, but it came in a bit late. Oh well still a good read for young readers.
I love reading and learning more about Helen Keller. This one is a great addition.
This book was inspiring and amazing. It was published in 2012, and is a biography/true story of the life of Helen Keller. Although one may know some general facts about Helen Keller upon hearing her name, this book elaborates on this amazing woman's life including the struggles and successes of her life.
This book had beautiful and almost true to life illustrations. By this meaning that many of them looked as though they were photographs.
Annie and Helen by Deborah Hopkinson and Raul Colón is a B story. It shares the wonderful relationship of Helen Keller and her teacher Annie Sullivan. This would be a great AS story because Hopkinson is an amazing author that has written quality books. I think a great resource to pair with this book is an informational article like #ucflae3414f19
I found a used bookstore in Victoria, Texas boasting more than 45,000 books! Loved it and its exchange policy! I took in five books and got $10 credit off my purchase of four books (which were already half off). This makes it so much nicer to endure the long drives here for work (plus the audiobooks I listen to along the way).
