From School Library Journal Gr 4-6–Flora, obsessed with superhero comics, immediately recognizes and gives her wholehearted support to a squirrel that, after a near-fatal brush with a vacuum cleaner, develops the ability to fly and type poetry. . Campbell's rounded and gentle soft-penciled illustrations, at times in the form of panel art furthering the action, wonderfully match and add to the sweetness of this oddball story.

The 10-year-old hides her new friend from the certain disapproval of her self-absorbed, romance-writer mother, but it is on the woman's typewriter that Ulysses pours out his creations. There are plenty of action sequences, but the novel primarily dwells in the realm of sensitive, hopeful, and quietly philosophical literature.–Rhona Campbell, Georgetown Day School, Washington, DC(c) Copyright 2013.

Mercy Watson for the (Somewhat) More Grown Up J. Hundley And I don't mean the title as an insult or backhanded compliment.My daughter and I come to this from the younger audience DiCamillo books - most specifically the wonderful, screwball Mercy Watson books. My daughter is a second-grader for whom this is a tad advanced, mostly in the vocabulary, though I suspect most of the target audience and even a few adults, may have trouble here and there with this. As a result, we used this as a read-aloud, with the graphic chapters shared in a huddle. Our composite review is a big thumbs up.In Flora, DiCamillo has created a wonderful main. "A new favorite for all time" according to Jennifer Donovan. Oh how I love this book. My 9-year-old son got to it before me, and how he loves this book. We've read excerpts aloud to my 15-year-old daughter who has never lost her appreciation for children's books (She must get it from me), and she loves what she's heard, and is going to read it next, now that I'm finished it. You can read the description yourself, but the characters speak to what was lovely about the book:FLORA -- A precocious (and self-proclaimed cynical) 10-year-old girl.ULYSSES -- A squirrel who got sucked up by a vacuum cleaner, the survival of which event gave him. If you loved "Because of Winn-Dixie". My 10 year old, 7 year old and I read Because of Winn-Dixie and absolutely fell in love with the story and went right to Amazon to purchase another story of the same author. We are three-quarters the way through this book and in my opinion, it can't be over soon enough. I have been reading it aloud at night to both kids and I have a searing headache after each night of reading. My daughter (7yo) old is bored with the story however my son (10yo) very much enjoys it. When he tries to take a turn to read aloud he gets frustrated easily and hands it back to me, but he enjoys it
