Grace Norwich delivers another winner in her biography series, which I gifted to an eight-year-old. This is not the first book I have read from this author, nor will it be the last. I have gifted a few of her books to young children, and they all enjoyed the reading. I remember my own daughter doing a book report in school on Helen Keller, and my only regret is that this book was not published back then. There are many advantages for the young reader, as they become interested in this series.Grace Norwich pens an easy-to-read biography that draws interest to learn about the life of Helen Keller, as it grabs your attention. In addition, she includes historical facts at the end of the book. This book is also great for group discussions, as young children become curious, and will ask questions, while sharing their own thoughts.The children who I gifted a few books to from this series, were inspired to learn about other famous people in American history. Reading skills can improve when young children enjoy learning about famous people they are curious about, and this book helps them to engage in social activity, as they have the opportunity to form group discussions.This book inspires, motivates, and is educational. I will indeed be gifting more books from this series to young children, who I know are eager to learn about other famous people in history. Enjoyable, entertaining, and highly recommended!
My eight year old daughter begged me to let her pick out one of these I Am books and after much deliberation she finally decided on this one and it seemed to be the right choice. Within an hour of getting it, she had already read several chapters. By the next day, she had finished and enthusiastically told me all the facts about Helen Keller she had learner.
My daughter had to do a book report on any book she wanted. So she picked this one because she loves this series and it wasn't too long or too short. I think this book is good for grades 3-5 my daughter loved the book and her book report got a great grade.
This book was really good because at the end there is cool things to know about Helen Keller and it tells lots of things that most people would not know like that Helen Keller had her eyes replaced for glass ones because Anne thought she looked better that way
I liked how it described Hellen with a lot of detailsI recommend this book to my friend GiannaI picked this rating because this is a very interesting book and I would actually recommend this anyone really

This helped me so much. I learned many things about Hellen Keller. Many people should read this book. Hero herp
