A timeless tale by the incomparable Kate DiCamillo, complete with stunning full-color plates by Bagram Ibatoulline, honors the enduring power of love.
"Someone will come for you, but first you must open your heart. . . ."
Once, in a house on Egypt Street, there lived a china rabbit named Edward Tulane. The rabbit was very pleased with himself, and for good reason: he was owned by a girl named Abilene, who treated him with the utmost care and adored him completely.
And then, one day, he was lost.
Kate DiCamillo takes us on an extraordinary journey, from the depths of the ocean to the net of a fisherman, from the top of a garbage heap to the fireside of a hoboes' camp, from the bedside of an ailing child to the bustling streets of Memphis. And along the way, we are shown a true miracle — that even a heart of the most breakable kind can learn to love, to lose, and to love again.

A china doll named Edward was owned by Abilene Tulane, a young, rich girl who loved Edward, and played with him all of the time. But when Abilene went on a cruise with her family, Edward was accidentally thrown overboard. Months, maybe even years later, he was caught by a fisherman, made in to a scare crow, taken by a hobo at the dump, and even held in the arms of a poor, sick girl who was living with her brother in a shack. But over all of this time, Edward turned in to someone who loved, listened, and went through many adventures with various people who showed him their lives and helped him learn the true meaning of love.
Edward Tulane is my favorite book by far! Its about a china doll rabbit, who was never grateful of the people who loved him. He was loved by many people in his life. Hobo, wife, lost boy, a little girl, and even more people. This is a great book for almost all ages of children! If you like lovable, adventurous, scary, funny, books you will love reading Edward Tulane! I give this fantabulous book five shining stars!
