Edward Tulane, a cold-hearted and proud toy rabbit, loves only himself until he is separated from the little girl who adores him and travels across the country, acquiring new owners and listening to their hopes, dreams, and histories.

A lovely little story that ended much like I expected it would. This is what one might write if they were going to update The Velveteen Rabbit, but with a snarkier and more difficult character who still manages to have some whimsy in his own way.
Touching little book. Hits exactly the points you want a simple story to hit, in just the powerful but subtle way that it should. This is the kind of story that everyone wants to write, and everyone wants to read.
