Edward Tulane is a dapper china rabbit—a gift for 10-year-old Abilene, who loves him almost as much as he loves himself. When Edward gets lost at sea, a series of adventures takes him far from home and far from the vain and selfish rabbit he once was, as he discovers the transformative power of love.
