47 pages : color illustrations ; 26 cm . American poet Emily Dickinson is revered around the world, and influenced many feminist artists and writers. Her work is some of the best known and most quoted or adapted: 'Hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul, and sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all' Emily Dickinson. Dickinson received a very good education, but chose to return home to Amherst, Massachusetts, where she spent the rest of her life, writing more than a poem a day until her death. Her refusal to compromise her highly condensed expression meant that only a tiny fraction of her work was published in her lifetime. Even today, her work feels startlingly modern: 'Dogs are better than human beings because they know but do not tell' Emily Dickinson. show less K 510 Lexile estimate K Raz-Plus Edited By Frances Schoonmaker Bolin : Illustrated by Chi Chung American poetry Juvenile Literature Poetry for Young People Juvenile Literature PS1541 .A1 813.4 043917872X FISKH 250722 20250722113334.0 7501 eng
