The poems become easier to follow, read alone or aloud. It is something a screen cannot give: a real book you hold, write in, and hand on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor readers who love Rossetti and readers meeting her for the first time, for families who read poetry aloud together, and for anyone who would rather hold a poem on paper than scroll to it on a phone.
