Summary: The life of a great poet
Comment: "Emily Dickinson: American Poet," with text by Carol Greene and illustrations by Steven Dobson, is a biography of the great 19th century American poet. Directed towards younger readers, this book tells Emily's story with simple language and plentiful visual aids.

Steven Dobson's evocative full-color illustrations are complemented by black-and-white reproductions of photographs, paintings, and other visual records from Emily's era. We get to see Emily at various stages of her life, and we also see her family, her friends, and the home she lived in. Greene's text takes us from Emily's childhood to the end of her life. Greene pays particular attention to Emily's personal relationships, and includes lines from some of her best-known poems.

This book is a fine introduction to Emily Dickinson's world and to her art. If your child enjoys this book, be sure to share some of Emily's poems with him or her.
