- Synopsis
-
Abigail Carter's life changes forever when two doctors from Boston come up the dusty road to her family's farm. The doctors are starting a school and want Abby and her sister, Sophia, to be their first students. The two girls pack up their things and head to the city.
Ten-year-old Abby and six-year old Sophia are going off to make history--to attend the first school for blind people in America. Yet well known, her story is the story of the Perkins School for the Blind, the school Annie Sullivan attended before she became Helen Keller's teacher.
