Virginia Woolf: Little People, Big Dreams

Born into an artistic household, little Virginia loved writing. At nine years old, she started a newspaper about her family – delighting relatives with her wit and wisdom. But life took a sad turn in her teens, when he mother, sister and father passed away just a few years apart. Having fallen into a depression, Virginia stopped writing. It took time, but she eventually felt well enough to pick up her pen again. As an adult, she wrote reviews, poems, essays, novels . . . using her writing to express her ideas and soothe her mind.
