What Emma Wrote
Ann D. Koffsky
STARRED REVIEW "A measured, resonant biography that frames writing as civic engagement." —School Library Journal"An eye-opening look at a writer who spoke truth to power." —Kirkus Reviews"History made to feel immediate." —Judith MagazineWith its poetic message of welcome, the Statue of Liberty holds an important and beloved place in American history. In time for anniversary of our nation's founding, this biography of the woman who wrote the now-famous poem on its pedestal has deep relevance for readers today. Emma loved stories, loved writing poetry, and was curious about the world. When she met poor immigrants arriving in New York City, she knew she had to help. And when she was asked to write a poem about the Statue of Liberty, she imagined Lady Liberty as a mother, welcoming her children home. Her famous poem, “The New Colossus,” is still there on the statue’s pedestal, sharing its message of welcome with the world.
