Dear friends,

I'm canvassing the ever-helpful museum list to see if anyone can  
direct me towards a well-written examples of a biography of a child.   
It may be a bit of a stretch as I'm not looking for biographies  
written *for* children, but about them.  I realize that most people  
have biographies written about them after a life full of  
accomplishment, but one of the core collections at the Sweet Briar  
Museum belonged to a girl who died at the age of sixteen, and I have a  
student interested in writing her biography as an honors thesis.  Can  
anyone point me in the direction of a good model?  Barring a biography  
of a child, perhaps someone might recommend chapters of a full-fledged  
biography in which the early years are dealt with in some detail.

Thank you all in advance for your assistance.

All best,
Christian Carr
Director, Sweet Briar Museum
