5.0 out of 5 stars A Victorian Era Gem, June 22, 2010
By 
This review is from: The Book of Small (Paperback)
I read this second, after 'Growing Pains the autobiography of Emily Carr'. If I was to compare the two, they're really quite different. This memoir is seen through Emily's childhood years in Victoria, BC. Little stories of herself, her parents, sisters and pets, told with innocence and some humor. The book incorporates Victoria itself, the changes it went through and it's evolution as a British colony. It's like another character.

It's only a little book, but was an absolute pleasure. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys history (Emily was born in 1871) or who knows Victoria B.C Canada, as a lot of places are named and described. For those who want to read about her art, this isn't the book because it's focused only on her childhood years.
