Orris is a rat, Timble is an owl, and they meet each night in an old barn to share stories. One night, Timble asks a fateful question: “Why don’t you ever leave the barn, Orris?” Strong and brave, the owl offers to carry the rat on his back. Orris will be able to see it all for himself—the rivers and fish, roads and farms, mountains and coyotes. But why would Orris leave the barn when all he needs is there: his books, the moon and stars above, and Timble’s nightly tales of high-flying adventure? What would \u003ci\u003eyou \u003c\/i\u003edo if you had the chance to fly? In the final installment of an exquisitely illustrated and deeply felt early-reader trilogy, two-time Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo reveals how trust and friendship can lift us into our best lives.\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eISBN13: 9781536227581\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumber of Pages: 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEdition: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublisher: Candlewick Press,U.S.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublication City, Country: Massachusetts, United States\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions (cm): 21.6(H)x17(L)x1.3(W)323\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight (gm): 323\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cb\u003eKate DiCamillo\u003c\/b\u003e is one of America’s most beloved storytellers.
