Review

This book is a wonderful introduction to Emily Dickinson, great American poet, as seen through the eyes of her nephew, Gilbert. The story highlights some well-known aspects about Dickinson, such as her love of nature and her reclusive way of living, as well as a few of her poems. The drawings capture a bit of what life may have been like in Amherst, Massachusetts in 1881.
