Louisiana's Way Home
Louisiana, with her quick, insightful takes on everyone she meets, grabbed readers hearts in Raymie Nightingale, and in this book she isnt about to let go. The New York Times Book Review
When Louisiana Elefantes 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 isnt 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 Louisianas life becomes entwined with the lives of the people of a small Georgia town including a surly motel owner, a walrus-like minister, and a mysterious boy with a crow on his shoulder she starts to worry that she is destined only for goodbyes. Called one of DiCamillos most singular and arresting creations by the New York Times Book Review, the heartbreakingly irresistible Louisiana Elefante was introduced to readers in Raymie Nightingale. Now, with humor and tenderness, Kate DiCamillo returns to tell her story.
