The Book of Small is a collection of thirty-six word sketches in which Emily Carr relates anecdotes about her life as a young girl in the frontier town of Victoria. She notes: "There were a great many things that I only half understood, such as saloons and the Royal Family and the Chain Gang." The young Emily, who gave herself the nickname "Small," was an intense, observant and sensitive yet rebellious child, who often got into scrapes because of her frankness or innocence. The vividly told stories reveal an awareness of the comedyand pathosof people and situations. They also offer an intimate look into childhood in a pioneer society in Victorian times. The Book of Small is a classic memoir of early childhood and a wonderful addition to your Emily Carr library.
