by Frances Schoonmaker Bolin (Editor), Chi Chung (Illustrator)
Now beautifully redesigned, this Poetry for Young People collection brings us into the world of Emily Dickinson, where even the most ordinary things can turn magical. In addition to a brief biography of Dickinson, more than 35 much-loved poems include "Im nobody, who are you?" and "I started early, took my dog." Superb, yet always child-friendly, images make this a volume not to be missed.
