The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo

This is my first time reading a DiCamillo story.
I've heard all the rave reviews about her other books and I don't know how The Magician's Elephant stacks up against them, but I loved this book.
It was beautifully written, magically created, gorgeously realised and utterly compelling from start to finish. It is a story about hope, wonder, the unexpected and trust.

A modern classic for mature 7 + readers.
