The Twilight Saga’s fading Limelight 2017 â€Å"Childhood is not from birth to a certain age and at a certain age The child is grown, and puts away childish things. Childhood is the kingdom where nobody dies† (Edna St. Vincent Millay) is used as an epigraph by Meyer in book one of Breaking Dawn to depict the childhood life of the protagonist: from just an average teen, to a young mature mother, and then to the end of the her life as a young mortal adult to her rebirth as a young adult in an immortal realm.
