Orris and Timble: The Beginning

Orris the rat lives alone in an old barn surrounded by his treasures, until the day his solitude is disrupted by a sudden flutter of wings and a loud screech. A small owl has gotten caught in a trap in the barn. Can Orris “make the good and noble choice” (as the king on his prized sardine can might recommend) and rescue the owl, despite the fact that owls and rats are natural enemies? And if he does, will he be ready for the consequences?

With humor and tenderness, two-time Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo brings us a charming illustrated chapter book telling the first of three tales celebrating unlikely friendship. This soon-to-be classic, brought to expressive life by the full-color illustrations of Carmen Mok, celebrates the power of sharing stories and doing the right thing.

Description

"Orris is not only a doer of good deeds, he’s a gifted storyteller to boot, and both protagonists learn to trust in the easy rhythm and happy feelings brought about by sharing tales with a friend. DiCamillo expertly wraps humor, kindness, the courage that purpose ignites, and a love of story into a concise, welcoming package. Quiet watercolor-and-pencil scenes by Mok (Cone Dog) are rendered in shadowy nighttime grays, blacks, and browns that crisply contrast Timble’s bright plumage." — Publishers Weekly
