Flora and Ulysses by Kate DiCamillo

This book is about a girl named Flora, who sees a squirrel get sucked up into a vacuum and turn into superhero squirrel. She doesn't know that yet, until she sees the squirrel fly and lift heavy things up. So she takes him home and names him Ulysses. Her mom isn't very fond of this, and Flora calls her the villain of story. Basically, this book talks about her life changes with Ulysses suddenly in her life, and how it effects others. To be honest, I didn't really like this book. It was a really easy read, but very unrealistic and I just didn't like how it was written and the moral of the book. If you want an easy, quick read, I would recommend this but not for a book that might be memorable. Some parts were okay, but this book was definitely meant for younger readers.
