Another time, Anne got a bucket of water from the well, poured it
on Helens hand and wrote WATER. From that day on, Helen noticed
that everything has a name. Within months working with Anne, Helen
knew how to help herself, also to communicate with her parents without
throwing tantrums.
Helen met many famous people in her life. She made friends with
author Mark Twain and inventor Alexander Graham Bell. Helen also met
Charlie Chaplin, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Eleanor Roosevelt, Martha
Graham, India's former Prime Minister Nehru, the Queen of England,
and 12 U.S. presidents, from Grover Cleveland to John F. Kennedy.
After people around the world had read about Helens life, they
thought that Helen was brave, intelligent, courageous, inspiring,
amazing, successful, bright, determined, positive, and finally, helpful to
the world.
