About Lost Evangeline
Step into the enchanting world of Norendy with Kate DiCamillo's latest original fairy tale, Lost Evangeline. This captivating story introduces us to a kind shoemaker who discovers a tiny girl, no bigger than a mouse, and lovingly raises her as his own, naming her Evangeline. However, his wife, consumed by fear and suspicion, believes Evangeline has cast a spell over her husband. When an opportunity arises, she cruelly sends the small girl away, leaving Evangeline lost and alone in a vast, unfamiliar world.
Despite her daunting circumstances, Evangeline proves to be incredibly brave and resourceful. Her journey to find her way back home is filled with unexpected encounters, including a memorable meeting with a disdainful yet ultimately helpful cat. DiCamillo, a beloved storyteller and two-time Newbery Medal winner, crafts a timeless narrative about resilience, family, and the belief in the impossible. Graced with exquisite black-and-white illustrations by Sophie Blackall, Lost Evangeline is perfect for young readers aged 9-11, offering a magical experience to be savoured alone or shared aloud.
