The broken bone scraped my spinal cord, and in an instant I was paralyzed.”Ĭrosby, who is a professor of English and Gender, Feminist, and Sexuality studies, and a scholar of the Victorian novel, describes how most accounts of trauma and recovery “answer to the dictates of the realist consensus”: once the writer’s life has been split wide open, the task of such memoirs is to stitch it back together in ways that make it seem deep, complex, self-contained, and goal-oriented. “My chin took the full force of the blow, which smashed my face and broke the fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae in my neck. “I caught a branch in the spokes of the front wheel,” she writes.

This gives a story an epic feel, and we sense we’re reading something important. Stories set over a short period are often wonderful, but “Miss Rumphius” stands apart because this particular home-away-home story takes place over an entire lifetime. The child or child-proxy learns something like how to be brave, to not to be afraid of monsters, or perhaps the outing is purely carnivalesque. Many picture books are about a character who leaves home, has an adventure then returns having changed a little, but most of these adventures take place over a single 12 hour day. Miss Rumphius was inspired by the real life “Lupine Lady,” Hilda Hamlin, who spread lupine seeds along the Maine coast, as well as Cooney’s own experiences traveling the world. Miss Rumphius is a classic home-away-home picture book. ![]() In a picture book about a journey there will probably be beautiful illustrations of a road. ![]() |
