Flora and Ulysses
Kate DiCamillo
Fiction D547f
It begins, as the best superhero stories do, with a tragic accident that
has unexpected consequences. The squirrel never saw the vacuum cleaner
coming, but self-described cynic Flora Belle Buckman, who has read every
issue of the comic book Terrible Things Can Happen to You!, is
the just the right person to step in and save him. What neither can
predict is that Ulysses (the squirrel) has been born anew, with powers
of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry — and that Flora will be
changed too, as she discovers the possibility of hope and the promise of
a capacious heart.
