"Trapped in a trunk, five puppets--a king, a wolf, a girl, a boy, and an owl--bicker, boast, and comfort one another in the dark. Individually, they dream of song and light, freedom and flight, purpose and glory, but they all agree they are part of a larger story, bound each to each by chance, bonded by the heart's mysteries. When at last their shared fate arrives, landing them on a mantel in a blue room in the home of two little girls, the truth is more astonishing than any of them could have imagined.,From master storyteller Kate DiCamillo comes the first of the Norendy Tales, a series of original fairy tales, each illustrated by a different virtuoso artist. Julie Morstad's enchanting illustrations bring to life this story of five friends who confront circumstances beyond their control with patience, cunning, and high spirits." ,Provided by publisher.
