The Magician's Elephant
Author(s): Kate DiCamillo
Adventure and Real Life Stories
When a fortuneteller's tent appears in the market square of the city of Baltese, orphan Peter Augustus Duchene knows the questions that he needs to ask: Does his sister still live? And if so, how can he find her? The fortuneteller's mysterious answer (An elephant An elephant will lead him there ) sets off a chain of events so remarkable, so impossible, that Peter can hardly dare to believe it. But it is--all of it--true.
Bernice Recommends: An extraordinary tale of magic and empathy. Told with poetic yet approachable prose. Highly recommended for ages 8+. Great for reading aloud.
