Kate DiCamillo’s New Novel to Feature Comic Strips by K.G. Campbell
“The novel stars a cynical, comic-loving girl and a squirrel who comes back to life with ‘powers of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry.’ DiCamillo, 48, who lives in Minneapolis, says she got the idea from her mother’s obsession with her Electrolux vacuum cleaner and ‘a squirrel on my front steps that looked like he was not feeling well.'”
