Louisiana's Way Home
of Kate DiCamillo (Goodreads Author)
Series: Three Rancheros #2
Description
From two-time Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo comes a story of discovering who you are â and deciding who you want to be.When Louisiana Elefanteâs granny wakes her up in the middle of the night to tell her that the day of reckoning has arrived and they have to leave home immediately, Louisiana isnât overly worried. After all, Granny has many middle-of-the-night ideas. But this time, things are different. This time, Granny intends for them never to return. Separated from her best friends, Raymie and Beverly, Louisiana struggles to oppose the winds of fate (and Granny) and find a way home. But as Louisianaâs life becomes entwined with the lives of the people of a small Georgia town â including a surly motel owner, a walrus-like minister, and a mysterious boy with a crow on his shoulder â she starts to worry that she is destined only for good-byes. (Which could be due to the curse on Louisianaâs and Grannyâs heads. But that is a story for another time.)Called âone of DiCamilloâs most singular and arresting creationsâ by The New York Times Book Review, the heartbreakingly irresistible Louisiana Elefante was introduced to readers in Raymie Nightingale â and now, with humor and tenderness, Kate DiCamillo returns to tell her story.
