As an illustrator, Jessie Willcox Smith ranks right at the top along side Norman Rockwell. Smith gives the reader a glimpse into the whimsical world of childhood innocence. The reflection of childhood emotions illustrated by this artist allows the reader to look backward into his own childhood experience. Pictures are heartwarming as well as reflective of the childhood culture of the United States.
