In a highly awaited new novel, Kate DiCamillo conjures a haunting
fable about trusting the unexpected -- and making the extraordinary
come true.
What if? Why not? Could it be?
When a fortuneteller's tent appears in the market square of the
city of Baltese, orphan Peter Augustus Duchene knows the questions
that he needs to ask: Does his sister still live? And if so, how
can he find her? The fortuneteller's mysterious answer (an elephant
An elephant will lead him there ) sets off a chain of events so
remarkable, so impossible, that you will hardly dare to believe
it's true. With atmospheric illustrations by fine artist Yoko
Tanaka, here is a dreamlike and captivating tale that could only be
narrated by Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo. In this timeless
fable, she evokes the largest of themes -- hope and belonging,
desire and compassion -- with the lightness of a magician's touch.
