Hosted by Eva at A Stripped Armchair and Marg at Reading Adventures.We share what we each picked up at the library during the week.
Someone call the doctor!!! I only checked out 1 book this week.....there must be something seriously wrong with me!!! But I'm so glad it was this book because I've been waiting to read this one for a while!!
The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo
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 you will hardly dare to believe it’s true.
Doesn't it sound wonderful? And I can't wait to look at the beautiful drawings that go along with the story!

ReplyDeleteOooh, I bet I'll have to wait forever to get that one from the library. :( Of course, I might as well admit right up front that I'm going to eventually buy it anyway. Tell me, tell me...you absolutely loved it, didn't you?
