Sara O’Leary begins and ends her tale with an inviting point of view. Speaking in second person, she immediately draws the reader in. “Many years before you were born. a child named Charlotte Bronte made a little book for her little sister Anne. If you look through the window of this house… you can see the two of them there…” The illustration of the atmospheric moor and the view through the window of two adorable little girls engaged in bookmaking will charm any young reader, particularly booklovers.Cleverly, O’Leary weaves together the life of the four young Brontes and the tales in the little handmade books they created. With an appetite for stories, the children not only devoured them as readers, but also invented characters to write about. Branwell’s toy soldiers inspired endless tales as well. Briony May Smith’s lush detailed art, in an earth tone palette, envelops readers into 19th century life from cobblestone streets to the windy moors. She also conveys the innocence of the young Brontes, who are “a world unto themselves.” In one particularly brilliant illustration, Smith portrays the four children in a bedroom engaged in imaginative play, and the shadows on the wall capture what’s in their minds and the stories they weave.The text only briefly mentions the later literary accomplishments of Charlotte, Anne, and Emily but intentionally states, “Let’s leave them there now,” emphasizing the joys of the bookmaking and indeed inviting young readers to do the same, even including a spread in the backmatter: “How to Make Your Own Little Book.” Also in backmatter is an author’s note, timeline, and sources. This tour de force between O’Leary and Smith is a not-to-missed tale that will spark interest for young children to learn more and will delight fans of the Brontes’ story.
