Vanessa's sister, Virginia, is in a "wolfish" mood --- growling, howling
and acting very strange. It's a funk so fierce, the whole household
feels topsy-turvy. Vanessa tries everything she can think of to cheer
her up, but nothing seems to work. Then Virginia tells Vanessa about an
imaginary, perfect place called Bloomsberry. Armed with an idea, Vanessa
begins to paint Bloomsberry on the bedroom walls, transforming them into
a beautiful garden complete with a ladder and swing "so that what was
down could climb up." Before long, Virginia, too, has picked up a brush
and undergoes a surprising transformation of her own. Loosely based on
the relationship between author Virginia Woolf and her sister, painter
Vanessa Bell, Virginia Wolf is an uplifting story for readers of all
ages.
