Hey FPgirls! So many of you *love* to read! We think that’s awesome, and wanted to tell you about a book we thought you’d really like. It’s called Flora and Ulysses. Here’s what it’s about!
It begins, as the best superhero stories do, with a tragic accident that has unexpected consequences. The squirrel never saw the vacuum cleaner coming, but self-described cynic Flora Belle Buckman, who has read every issue of the comic book Terrible Things Can Happen to You!, is the just the right person to step in and save him. What neither can predict is that Ulysses (the squirrel) has been born anew, with powers of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry — and that Flora will be changed too, as she discovers the possibility of hope and the promise of a capacious heart. From #1 New York Times best-selling author Kate DiCamillo comes a laugh-out-loud story filled with eccentric, endearing characters and featuring an exciting new format — a novel interspersed with comic-style graphic sequences and full-page illustrations, all rendered in black-and-white by up-and-coming artist K. G. Campbell.

it sounds boring
That book sounds so splendid . That summary about the book makes me want to read this very sencond
My sister read that and said it was boring and really kidish. Sorry no offense to anyone but I think you guys could of chosen a higher level book. May I suggest The Land Of Stories series or the Harry Potter series?
I love you suff!
hey you should love fashion more than reading who is with me
Not necessarily alexasblue. I am a tomboy and love reading and even if you are on this website it doesn’t mean you cant love reading too!

I love that book.
OMG! my sister read that book and got it signed and touched by Rick himself!!! She is obsessed with the Percy Jackson series and the Heroes of Olympus series. Have you also read the Kane Chronicles? They are really great books and are also by Rick. Also a really cute boy in my class likes the series!!
That sounds interseting.
Sounds strange.
Yeah right?
I love the author! I am going to check this book out at the library.
I think that would be a good book because it is a little bit funny and has a little bit of adventure in it.
good book have u ever read:Because of Winn Dixie its very nice by the same author as Flora and ulyseses kate de camill look for it its good its about a girl opal goes to the supermarket and the manager is very angry and says whose dog is running around and the girl opal says thats her dog……”……….

IKR! That book is so good! It is better than the movie and i thought they could of done better on that movie
I might want to read it
Well it sounds okay but I am in 5th grade and i read a like 7-8 grade books like -

i would love love love to read this
That sounds like fun! FPDanielle, what is the age range? And do you know how long it is? Sounds like fun!
The site linked in the post says the age range is from 7-12 (Grade 3-8) and it’s 240 pages long.
I haven’t read it, but I’d say that’s probably a good idea of the age range.
No wonder the story is more of fantasy to me cauz I’m like 12
I am in the advanced class, and I read things that are way above my grade level, so I don’t think I’d read this. No offense to anyone.
-Alayna
me too… this kinda sounds like a kids book- no offense…
It might be cool! Don’t judge a book by it’s cover
Love,
SSGirl
I read at 7.2 but I am in 5th grade. I even read at this level
I also like to read in like 12th grade reading level but I am on ly 13 but it sounds cool
Reading is awesome!!!! I read really big thick books though, but this one sounds interesting! ( I am at a 9th grade reading level)
Love,
SSGirl

Hi, I’m 13 years old and a very advanced reader. I was thinking that maybe next time you can talk about a novel that is a little more grown up than Flora and Ulysses? I would be so grateful!!!
Thanks,
CarolinaGal ;D

CookieOlive
I would totally read that!
I LUVVVVV to read also! I’ll see what I can find at my local library.
Not really. It doesn’t sound like something I would read, I mean a squirrel with super powers doesn’t sound like something I would read, sorry. It’s cool if you like It though! Has anyone read The Witch Of Blackbird Pond or the Princess Acadamy? And was it good? I’m thinking about reading them.
-Potato
ive read princess academy- it is SOO good!!
Those are really good. I’m homeschooled, so I get to do a lot of reading. Try “Sincerely”. It’s about two girls who become pen pals for a school project. It is REALLY Really good. It’s one of my faves. After HungerGames
FTL!!!!!!! Actually, that sounds like a book I’d def wanna read!!!!
I luv to read! The book, Flora & Ulysses, sounds okay, but I probably wouldn’t read the whole thing.
CookieOlive
I’ve heard better but sounds funny!
