This book is called Flora And Ulysses by Kate DiCamillo. The main characters are Flora and Ulysses, and they live in Flora’s house in the late 1900’s. Three important events in the book are: Flora saves Ulysses from a vacuum, Flora discovers that Ulysses can understand everything Flora says, and they get into many different adventures. I really enjoy this book because it is exciting and funny.
My favorite part of the book is when Flora saves Ulysses because the vacuum was out of control and Flora was watching it all happen. Then all of a sudden, the vacuum went on top of Ulysses and Flora helped him. It made me laugh to imagine this happening in real life. I would recommend this book to people who like humorous books and fantasy books (because Ulysses can understand Flora). I would also recommend it to people who like Kate DiCamillo books because it is better than her Mercy books.
Lastly, I rate this book five stars because it was exciting, funny, and Kate DiCamillo added images and comic book strips that added to the story.
Io, your review was really good. I want to read it! When I read it I knew instantly I wanted to read it!
What is ulysses
I just purchased this book at the LREI book fair, and I can’t wait to read it! Your review is very well written. You provide a concise summary and you excite potential readers without giving away any spoilers! I really like the way you provide a point of comparison by referring to the work of Kate DiCamillo. This is really helpful for readers looking for a new read!
Oops! I meant, “referring to OTHER work by Kate DiCamillo…”
Cool I want to read this book, I love how you explained the book with the just right amount about the book and how you did not spoil about the book.
Really great review! I want to read this book now! My only question is, what and who is Ulysses? Is he a human? Judging by the cover, though, I think he’s a cat.
I kind of like Kate, but is Flora a person and Uyslees a cat
I have never read this book but I love the title…….
Flora is a person and Ulysses is a squirrel!!
I like how you said all of the important events that happened in the book.
