The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane
Publisher: Walker Books
Edward Tulane is an impressive and immaculate china rabbit. Abigail, his owner, adores and cares for him completely, but Edward does not return her love. Edward is self-centred, proud and heartless; he cares nothing for love.
Then, through a series of accidents Edward is separated from Abigail. His fine clothes, pride and his body are damaged as he passes through the hands of a fisherman, a hobo and a farmer's daughter. He learns about love and experiences the pain that comes with loss and death. He wonders if he can bear to risk loving again.
This is an unusual yet well-written and beautifully illustrated story. Edward's journey, both physical and emotional, is movingly told and full of vibrant characters.

DiCamillo is a brilliant story teller - one that's able to grapple with the dark and lonely parts of life in an honest way. Her books address real heart-wrenching pain and yet they are beautifully and gently written. Read this one but don't stop there! The Tale of Despereaux, Because of Winn Dixie, Tiger Rising, and The Magician's Elephant all deserve your time!
