An inspiring and kid-accessible biography of one of the world's most
famous poets.
Emily Dickinson, who famously wrote "Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul," is brought to life in this moving story. In
a small New England town lives Emily Dickinson, a girl in love with
small things—a flower petal, a bird, a ray of light, a word. In those
small things, her brilliant imagination can see the wide world—and in
her words, she takes wing. From celebrated children's author Jennifer
Berne comes a lyrical and lovely account of the life of Emily
Dickinson: her courage, her faith, and her gift to the world. With
Dickinson's own inimitable poetry woven throughout, this lyrical
biography is not just a tale of prodigious talent, but also of the
power we have to transform ourselves and to reach one another when we
speak from the soul.
• Fantastic educational opportunity to share Emily Dickinson's story
and poetry with young readers
• An inspirational real-life story that will appeal to children and
adults alike.
• Jennifer Berne is the author of critically acclaimed children's
biographies of Albert Einstein and Jacques Cousteau.

Beginnings, Emily and Carlo, and Uncle Emily will love On Wings of
Words.
