Title: Emotional And Well-Done, But Edward Tulane Is Better
Review: This book does a great job of showing DiCamillo's ability to put a lot of feeling into a small amount of simple words. There's a lot of focus on the theme of abandonment, and a lot of value placed on the emotion of sadness. Still, there's an optimistic spirit echoing in the background throughout the entire story. Kind of deep for a kid's novel, but that's probably why it's so loved.On a personal note, I loved The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane enough to read it twice, but I probably won't read Because of Winn Dixie again. I may forget most of it. I've forgotten entire books before.
