Flora and Ulysses, The Illuminated Adventures by Kate DiCamillo (from a Two Thumbs Up reviewer)

Saturday, Jun 20, 2015 at 10:19pm

The squirrel never saw the vacuum cleaner coming, but self-described cynic Flora Belle Buckman is just the right person to step in and save him. What neither can predict is that Ulysses (the squirrel) has been born anew, with powers of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry -- and that Flora will be changed too, as she discovers the possibility of hope and the promise of a capacious heart.

Flora and Ulysses, The Illuminated Adventures, is a wonderful book. A book filled with mystery, excitement and surprise. I was proud to read this amazing novel. Is Ulysses the squirrel really magical or is it all an illusion? Will William Spiver be true to his word or will he betray them? Will Flora keep Ulysses' secret? What will happen in this exciting novel?
