This book is one of the titles for Global Read aloud this year. I have had this book on my shelf as it is by one of my favourite authors Kate Di Camillo. It is about a porcelain rabbit named Edward who lives with a little girl, she dresses him each morning in the most stylish of clothing. Her family decide to move abroad one day and Edward accompanies them on the sea journey. Edward is a great companion for Abilene, however, the other children on the ocean liner, fight over Edward and he goes overboard. The story reminds me of the movie Toy Story as it is narrates the adventure Edward has once he becomes lost. Going from owner to owner. It was a lovely story but I think it would be best suited to a younger audience, maybe Grade 2-3.
