Amazon had resurrected the Kindle Deal of the Day and hopefully this time it will last longer than it did before (it was only around a couple of weeks, if I recall correctly). Each day they will feature a different book at a substantial discount. Kicking off the feature is a book for middle-grade readers, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane ($1.39), by Kate DiCamillo and Bagram Ibatoulline (Illustrator). I don't know about calling the pictures stunning on the eInk screen of the Kindle, but they are readable.Book Description
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 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 bedside of an ailing child to the bustling streets of Memphis. Along the way, we are shown a miracle--that even a heart of the most breakable kind can learn to love, to lose, and to love again.
THE MIRACULOUS JOURNEY OF EDWARD TULANE is a timeless story told by Newbery-Award winning author Kate DiCamillo. Stunning full-color plates by fine artist Bagram Ibatoulline complement this powerful story about the enduring power of love.
