"An engaging introduction to this Romantic-era poet." -- Booklist "Enhanced with homespun gouache illustrations, Brown's luminous portrait of a literary life will inspire budding writers and encourage an appreciation of the beauty of the night sky. An appealing portrayal of a female poet, her creativity, and her time." -- Kirkus Reviews "Richly colored gouache paintings evoke the beauty of the rural world with a suitably old-fashioned formality." -- School Library Journal "Gouache paintings . have an intricate, vintage feel, reflecting Taylor's interest in nature with sweeping landscapes. Copious back matter, which includes an author's note and information on stars twinkling, fleshes out this edifying picture book biography." -- Publishers Weekly "Gorgeous.


" -- Kirkus Reviews on DANCING THROUGH FIELDS OF COLOR "A pitch-perfect expression of a little-known artist in text and illustration alike, this is a top-notch example of the picture book biography" -- School Library Journal on DANCING THROUGH FIELDS OF COLOR "Brown uses lyrical text full of action words and ranges of color to describe this lesser-known yet influential abstract expressionist artist." -- Booklist on DANCING THROUGH FIELDS OF COLOR.
