Read the excerpt from story of my life by helen keller. my aunt made me a big doll out of towels. it was the most comical shapeless thing, this improvised doll, with no nose, mouth, ears or eyes—nothing that even the imagination of a child could convert into a face. curiously enough, the absence of eyes struck me more than all the other defects put together. i pointed this out to everybody with provoking persistency, but no one seemed equal to the task of providing the doll with eyes. a bright idea, however, shot into my mind, and the problem was solved. i tumbled off the seat and searched under it until i found my aunt's cape, which was trimmed with large beads. i pulled two beads off and indicated to her that i wanted her to sew them on my doll. she raised my hand to her eyes in a questioning way, and i nodded energetically. the beads were sewed in the right place and i could not contain myself for joy; but immediately i lost all interest in the doll. which line from the excerpt is an important detail that would be included in a summary of the excerpt?
a. it was the most comical shapeless thing
b. i tumbled off the seat and searched under it until i found my aunt's cape
c. the absence of eyes struck me more than all the other defects
