The classic tale by Kate DiCamillo about the enduring power of love is now available in an exquisite twentieth-anniversary edition, complete with a special afterword by the author and an all-new illustration by the artist. Once, in a house on Egypt Street, there lived a china rabbit named Edward Tulane. The rabbit was very pleased with himself, and for good reason: He was owned by a girl named Abilene, who treated him with the utmost care and adored him completely. And then, one day, he was lost. Kate DiCamillo takes us on an extraordinary journey, from the depths of the ocean to the net of a fisherman, from the top of a garbage heap to the fireside of a hobo camp, from the bedside of an ailing child to the bustling streets of Memphis. And along the way, we are shown a true miracle—that even a heart of the most breakable kind can learn to love, to lose, and to love again. Printed in full color, this beautifully designed digest-size edition, complete with foil stamping, a ribbon, and sprayed edges, includes an essay from Kate DiCamillo about how she came to write the story of Edward and a new piece of art from Bagram Ibatoulline bringing the author’s dreams to life.
