Product Description:
This fictionalized storybook tells of a little girl who lives across the street from Emily Dickinson. The little girl is curious about Emily and wonders why she never leaves her house or sees people when they visit. When the little girl's mother is invited to go to Emily's house to play the piano, she tags along in hopes of seeing the mysterious woman. While her mother plays in the parlor, the little girl sneaks upstairs and exchanges words and gifts with her reclusive neighbor. This is a cute story, with detailed, full-color illustrations, that also gives a glimpse into the reclusive life of Dickinson. 34 pgs, pb. ~ Rachel
