〈尋愛之旅 從虛華的陶瓷精品到填滿愛的骨董娃娃〉
愛德華.杜蘭是一隻做工精美、自視甚高的陶瓷兔子,它不能說話、不能動,卻能看得見、聽得見,然而被小主人珍視、疼愛的愛德華卻從沒有真正用心感受「愛」,直到有一天,愛德華被小主人不小心弄丟了,它迷失在陌生的環境中...
The magical story of the adventures of a lost toy rabbit from a New York Times bestselling author, twice winner of the Newbery Medal. Abilene loves her blue china rabbit, but Edward Tulane is extremely vain and only loves himself. On a voyage from New York to London, Edward falls overboard and from there finds himself on an amazing journey. He travels with tramps, works as a scarecrow, comforts a dying child ... and finally learns what it is to truly love.
作者介紹
Kate DiCamillo’s writing journey has been a truly remarkable one. She grew up in Florida and moved to Minnesota in her twenties, when homesickness and a bitter winter led her to write Because of Winn-Dixie — her first published novel, which became a runaway bestseller and snapped up a Newbery Honor. The Tiger Rising, her second novel, was also set in Florida and went on to become a National Book Award finalist. Since then, the best-selling author has explored settings as varied as a medieval castle and a magician’s theater while continuing to enjoy great success, winning two Newbery Medals and being named National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature. She now has over 40 million books in print worldwide.
