The illustrations were beautiful but the story left much to be desired. It's relatable if you know the Brontes' story well and can catch all the little hints and nods to history---but I know my kids would likely be bored and lost with the story. ( )

Fairly accurate for a children's book (though I think it might have included information on how the two oldest sisters, Maria and Elizabeth, died). Fortunately, it doesn't demonize Patrick Brontë, though I think it may be a bit harsh to Aunt Branwell. ( )
