A beautiful illustrated edition of one of the world's favourite poems, perfect for the youngest readers.
Hope is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -

- A hopeful, uplifting read that shows better times are always around the corner
- Champions poetry for young readers, who will love following the bird's journey from spread to spread

A visually stunning retelling of one of the world's most famous poems, made accessible to children for the first time.
About the Author
Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886) was an American poet known for her simple works about love, death, and nature. Living in seclusion for most of her life, she wrote over 1,000 poems, but only 11 were published during her lifetime. Today she is considered one of the most famous and beloved poets of all-time.
Tim Hopgood is an award-winning picture book author and illustrator. His first book, Our Big Blue Sofa, was published by Macmillan in 2006 and won the Cambridgeshire Read it Again! award for best debut picture book. In 2008 he won the Booktrust Early Years Award for Best Emerging Illustrator, with the hugely successful WOW! Said the Owl. Recently he has combined his love of music with his love of drawing to produce a series of picture books based on classic songs - eg What a Wonderful World and Singing in the Rain which received a starred Kirkus review and was named a Publishers' Association Best Book of 2017.
