Because of how much they show of the reality of life, books are dangerous, Faber says. He argues that most people would rather experience rootlessness than really think about life.
Second, books require leisure to digest: in other words, they can be difficult, and they take time, but these are attributes, not negatives. Because they require time, books can provoke thought and yield new ideas.
Finally, Faber says, books matter if people have the freedom to act on the ideas in them: just reading a book is not the end
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
I think you meant to ask:Read the excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller.
Dr. Bell advised my father to write to Mr. Anagnos, director of the Perkins Institution in Boston, the scene of Dr. Howe's great labours for the blind, and ask him if he had a teacher competent to begin my education. This my father did at once, and in a few weeks there came a kind letter from Mr. Anagnos with the comforting assurance that a teacher had been found. This was in the summer of 1886. But Miss Sullivan did not arrive until the following March.

She recounts how she came to be after her lessons with Miss Annie Sullivan.At the end of Chapter III, Helen mentions how Dr. Alexander Graham Bell who they had consulted about her condition had suggested her father Mr. Keller to write to Mr. Anagnos. Being the director of Perkins Institution in Boston, he would be able to suggest any teacher to help Helen.
