Flora and Ulysses: The Illuminated Adventures by Kate DiCamillo
5.0
Newbery Medal Winner 2014
Loved this light-hearted story about a superhero squirrel and the family he flies into. The comic book illustrations were a wonderful addition, and the variety of quirky characters kept the story constantly entertaining. Yet, it dealt with real issues and didn't cross the line into flippant, nor did it offer easy resolution to real problems. The medal is well-deserved.
