Emily
(about Emily Dickinson)
by Michael Bedard

Introduction

Emily Dickinson, sometimes known for her eccentricities, is one of our greatest American poets. Her style is unique and accessible; her poems are not long, but they are deep. She is without a doubt my favorite poet.

This is a great little book about a little girl who goes to visit Emily with her mother. Along the way she learns about myth, mystery, poetry and Emily Dickinson.
