Description

Celebrate William Wordsworth's 250th birthday with this beautifully retold account of his life. Based on Dorothy Wordsworth's lyrical diary, this book brings to life their life together exploring the beautiful landscapes of the Lake District and London. The story is set against the backdrop of significant events such as the French Revolution, and features extracts from longer works like The Prelude. Dorothy's writings are now considered important examples of a woman's role in literature, tackling issues including social justice and nature. Lush landscapes and carefully researched costumes help to bring the era to life, making this book an engaging read for those interested in history and literature. The book ties into the national curriculum, making it a useful resource for students and educators alike.
