About this product
Product Information
2023 Bank Street Best Children's Books of the Year "An engaging introduction to this Romantic-era poet." -- Booklist The story behind the classic poem and song, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star! Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are. Did you ever wonder who wrote that famous verse? In the days when most girls were brought up to run a home, Jane Taylor had a different kind of education in the countryside, where she was inspired by nature and the stars, and dreamed of becoming a writer. But then, it was not considered proper for women to be writers. But Jane did write, and she never forgot her love for beauty of nature and the glow of stars, or her desire to write for children. Her published poetry became universally known for generations to come: Twinkle, twinkle little star. This lyrical and luminous biography shines a light on the unsung poet who wrote the words of our most enduring lullaby, and features stunning artwork reflecting the world, the stars, and the story behind the poem that we all know so well.

Reviews
"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, "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.
