What can a quiet life teach us about bold thinking? In a small room in Massachusetts, a woman wrote nearly 1,800 poems-most of them never seen until after she was gone. Her name was Emily Dickinson, and though she rarely left her home, her words have traveled across the world.This engaging book introduces readers ages 7 to 12 to the life, mind, and creative spirit of one of America’s greatest poets. Through curious questions, deep feelings, and the magic of noticing small things, Emily turned ordinary moments into something unforgettable. Birds, trees, shadows, hope, silence-she found poetry in all of it. And she did it in her own way, with no interest in fame or approval.Kids will discover how someone who seemed quiet could be filled with courage, and how staying true to yourself-even when others don’t understand-can lead to extraordinary things. With a warm, conversational tone and a clear focus on the emotional heart of her story, this book invites young readers to think, wonder, and perhaps even start writing their own poems.Perfect for thoughtful kids, curious minds, and anyone who’s ever felt different, this is a story about creativity, bravery, and the quiet kind of power that lasts.
