The Illuminated Adventures of Flora and Ulysses by Kate DiCamillo. On shelves September 2013.
A quick horizon scan with my brass monocular (little known fact – I captain a pirate ship on weekends) reveals a new book from Newbery-winning author Kate DiCamillo. Here’s what we know:
- It is fully illustrated.
- It’s touted as “genre-breaking”.
- It promises seal blubber.
