5 ⭐️s
This story follows the adventures of 5 puppets who long to fulfill their calling to tell a story. I wasn't sure what to expect from this little book, and I certainly did not expect it to be so poignant and serious and deep (I don't know why not though because that's Kate DiCamillo in a nutshell). This tale is a master class in subtlety and meaning. Absolutely brilliant in every way.
