(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Matt Phelan. In nineteenth-century Amherst, Massachusetts, Miss Emily entices four neighbor children to sneak out into the night to await the arrival of a circus train to town, sparking their curiosity and imagination. This well-researched, whimsical yarn in verse about Emily Dickinson's playful nature is based on real people and facts (all specified in the historical notes). Phelan's light sketches visualize key moments. Bib.
