The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane
by Kate DiCamillo
Book Description 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 hobos camp, from the bedside of an ailing child to the
bustling streets of Memphis. And along the way, we are shown a true
miracle: even a heart of the most breakable kind can learn to love, to
lose, and to love again.

The Doll People
by Ann M. Martin
Grades 3-6. Annabelle Doll has been eight years old for over 100 years. Not
much has changed in that time, except for the disappearance of Aunt Sarah
Doll 45 years ago. When Annabelle discovers Aunt Sarah’s diary she is
determined to solve the mystery, though her ultra-cautious antique china
family tries to discourage her. Then Tiffany and the rest of the totally
modern “Real Pink Plastic” Funcraft family move in next door and
Annabelle’s world is totally shaken up. This witty and intriguing tale will
appeal to those who like action and suspense mixed with their fantasy.
