It's the late 1930s. E.B. White is doing everything but finishing the first draft of Stuart Little. His wife, Katharine, is trying to adjust to life in the backwoods of Maine, far from her high powered job as the first female editor at the New Yorker. And Anne Carroll Moore, from behind the walls of her children's library empire at the New York Public Library, is not at all sure she approves of what's going on outside.

Little Book is a comedy about the written word. That is: it's about procrastination, disappointment, hypochondria, unrequited love, and blind hope. It's about why the semicolon is way sexier than the dash. And why children's literature matters.

In keeping with for/word's creative technique, Little Book is built entirely out of the writings of E.B. and Katharine White, as well as Anne Carroll Moore.

World premiere performance.
