Helen Keller

After reading Helen Keller's personal narrative I have realized that she actually did know what was going on in her surroundings. Even though she was blind and deaf she still was smart enough to figure out that water was cool. She knew everything about her surroundings  because she replaced the sense of sight and smell with her sense of touch. That is how she figured out everything around her. She used a technique of braille to help her connect the words to objects.
