Hallo, ik ben Finn, en ik help je dit boek te begrijpen.

Hier is het, uitgelegd alsof je 10 jaar bent:

Toen Helen Keller een klein kind was, nam ziekte haar zicht en haar gehoor weg. Ze leefde in stilte en duisternis, boos en vastgelopen, totdat haar lerares Anne Sullivan woorden in haar hand spelde. Op een dag, bij een waterpomp, begreep Helen dat alles een naam heeft. Daarna explodeerde het leren. Haar verhaal bewijst dat woorden een afgesloten wereld kunnen openen en dat geduld een leven kan veranderen.
