The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo
In a faded, war-shadowed city, a fortuneteller tells a lonely boy that his lost sister is alive and that an elephant will lead him to her. That same night, a magician accidentally conjures an elephant into an opera house, triggering a chain of encounters that entwines the boy, the remorseful magician, and a compassionate policeman. As the city awakens from its gloom, acts of kindness and courage guide the boy toward reunion and the elephant toward home, in a gentle fable about hope, connection, and the possibility of the impossible.
