Description
Edward Gorey's poignant tale of petite Charlotte Sophia's short life is a heart-wrenching story of hardship and survival. Orphaned and mercilessly treated by those around her, Charlotte barely escapes the cruelty of others - even her own doll meets a tragic end.
The intricate illustrations in this book are a testament to Gorey's skill as an artist, with each image meticulously detailed and crafted at its original size. This beautifully crafted book is now back in print after many years, offering readers the chance to experience Charlotte Sophia's story once again.
