This luminous picture book biography shines a light on the little-known poet and author of the beloved lullaby.Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are. Did you ever wonder who wrote that famous verse?In the days when most girls were brought up to run a home, Jane Taylor had a different kind of education in the English countryside, where she was inspired by nature and the stars, and dreamed of becoming a writer. But in the late 1700s, it was not considered proper for women to be writers.

Her published poetry became universally known for generations to come: Twinkle, twinkle little star.This lyrical and luminous biography shines a light on the unsung poet who wrote the words of our most enduring lullaby, and features stunning artwork reflecting the world, the stars, and the story behind the poem that we all know so well.
