Flora & Ulysses
THE ILLUSTRATED ADVENTURES
Kate DiCamillo
Newbery Medal 2014
A fun book, whimsical and cartoony but poignant. A girl with divorced parents, and a distracted, disinterested mother, saves a squirrel from a vacuum cleaner and their adventures begin. Great vocabulary, some of it comic book creative, and parts of the story are shown in comic style panels. Good read aloud.
