The Magician's Elephant, by Kate DiCamillo
€5.00
Quay Books
In this timeless fable, New York Times bestselling author Kate DiCamillo evokes the largest of themes - hope and belonging, desire and compassion - with the lightness of a magician's touch.
What if? Why not? Could it be? When a fortune-teller's tent appears in the market square of the city of Baltese, orphan Peter Augustus Duchene knows the questions that he must ask: Does his sister still live? And if so, how can he find her?The fortune-teller's mysterious answer (An elephant! An elephant will lead you there!) sets off a chain of events so remarkable, so impossible, that you will hardly dare to believe it is true.
“Kate DiCamillo tells a tale of ‘hope, redemption, faith, love, and believing in the impossible’ with her usual quiet elegant prose.” - Library Media Connection
“Lyrical language and many interesting characters make this a wonderful read aloud book or one to be savored alone.” - Kansas City Star
