This was a lovely sample collection of Emily’s poems and Tudor’s artwork delightfully accompanied them. I loved how Karen Ackerman introduced Dickinson’s poetry: “One of her favorite subjects was the special connection between Nature and human beings.” With that lens in mind, reading about the seasons brought all the seasonal changes to life. I only took of .25 of a star because I wish there could’ve been a little more commentary in the back!
