Flora & Ulysses: The Illuminated Adventures

A charming and fun bit of magical realism.
I am thinking that Ulysses is one of my favorite characters of all time.
Life is not perfect in this story; Kate DiCamillo gives the characters real problems as well as fantastical ones. Our characters overcome in a delightful way.

A great escape. I listened to this on my run this morning, so it is a pretty short one at that.

Appropriate for all ages. Kids who are dealing with divorce or the loss of a parent may relate to the Flora or William characters. My biased opinion is that everyone will love Ulysses.

Narration is well done.
