So Much More to Helen! Meeg Pincus. Illustrated by Caroline Bonne-Muller. 2022. [April] 32 pages. [Source: Library]

First sentence: Asked of Helen Keller's glory,
most folks talk of this one story:
DeafBlind girl--no one could reach her.
First word "water," thanks to teacher.
It's (mostly) true and worth retellin'--
Yet there's so much more to Helen!

Premise/plot: Picture book biography of Helen Keller. Each spread celebrates a side to Helen Keller that you may not be familiar with. 

My thoughts: I really loved, loved, loved this one!!! So beautiful. I loved the text and the illustrations. I loved the message as well.
