MONDAY, February 7 at 7pm: The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane
Part One of Two . . .
Once, in a house on Egypt Street, there lived a china rabbit named Edward Tulane. The rabbit was very pleased with himself, and for good reason: he was owned by a girl named Abilene, who treated him with the utmost care and adored him completely. And then, one day, he was lost.
Kate DiCamillo takes us on an extraordinary journey, from the depths of the ocean to the net of a fisherman, from the top of a garbage heap to the fireside of a hobos camp, from the bedside of an ailing child to the bustling streets of Memphis. And along the way, we are shown a true miracle: even a heart of the most breakable kind can learn to love, to lose, and to love again.
From Caledonia: It is a story about the truest love from one of my favorite contemporary authors. If you have ever questioned whether love is worth it, you need to hear this story. Edward takes the journey of the heart that we all take -- those of us for whom the road to love is not easy. Bring tissues. Bring someone you care about.
Presented live in Voice by Caledonia Skytower.
