Annie Sullivan and the Trials of Helen Keller (The Center for Cartoon Studies Presents)

Helen Keller lost her ability to see and hear before she turned two years old.

Â Â Â Â But in her lifetime, she learned to ride horseback and dance the foxtrot. She graduated from Radcliffe. She became a world famous speaker and author. She befriended Mark Twain, Charlie Chaplin, and Alexander Graham Bell. And above all, she revolutionized public perception and treatment of the blind and the deaf.

Â Â Â Â The catalyst for this remarkable lifeâ€™s journey was Annie Sullivan, a young woman who was herself visually impaired. Hired on as a tutor when Helen was six years old, Annie broke down the barriers between Helen and the wider world, becoming a fiercely devoted friend and lifelong companion in the process.

Â Â Â Â In Annie Sullivan and the Trials of Helen Keller, author and illustrator Joseph Lambert examines the powerful bond between teacher and pupil, forged through the intense frustrations and revelations of Helenâ€™s early education. The result is an inspiring, emotional, and wholly original take on the story of these two great Americans.
