Thank you for sharing the lines from Towers in the Mist. I have not read that Goudge story yet, and the bits you shared speak so much to the season of life I've been in.
On a different note, I just loved Barbara Cooney's Eleanor. Such a beautifully told story. Have you read Emily, illustrated by Barbara Cooney and written by Michael Bedard? It's about Emily Dickinson and is a favorite of mine. Gives such a beautiful perspective on Emily's life, both in words and pictures.
What a thorough review, Stephanie!

I'm glad the lines from Towers in the Mist spoke to you. I have read Emily! Picture book biographies are my favorite way to learn about people.
Me too! In homeschooling we've used picture books a ton for learning all kinds of history. It's been so enjoyable.
