About the Book

Vuelve la magia y la ternura de Calpurnia Tate, tan curiosa y encantadora como siempre.

La primavera se transformó lentamente en verano, con su inevitable calor aplastante y nuestras inevitables quejas a cuenta de ello. Viola decía que hacía tanto calor que las gallinas estaban poniendo huevos duros. Yo me quejaba menos que los demás porque a mediodía me escabullía con frecuencia al río, mientras que ellos preferían refugiarse en sus habitaciones, con los postigos cerrados, y echar una siesta agitada y sudorosa. Como no tenía traje de baño, me desnudaba hasta quedarme en camisola y flotaba de espaldas sobre los suaves remolinos, contemplando las nubes del cielo, en cuyas siluetas buscaba escenas y formas curiosas: ahí había una tienda india; allí, un ardillón bailando; allá, un dragón echando humo.

Calpurnia, Callie Vee, está decidida a pasar el año 1900 ampliando conocimientos sobre naturaleza con su excéntrico abuelo, uno de los últimos grandes caballeros aficionados a las ciencias de la naturaleza. Pero sus vidas se verán alteradas por un devastador huracán. Calpurnia y su joven hermano, Travis, ayudarán a un veterinario refugiado en su trabajo. Asimismo, adoptarán un armadillo, un mapache y una urraca, y descubrirán que ninguno de ellos es un buen animal doméstico. El veterinario Pritzker acabará por ceder y permitirá que Callie le acompañe en sus rondas, pero cuando ella anuncia a su familia que quiere ser veterinaria, la respuesta que recibe es un rotundo «no».

Pese a ello, su familia tendrá la oportunidad de cambiar de parecer cuando Callie salve la vida de la oveja --ganadora de varios premios-- de su madre. ¿Y quién se entrometerá en su camino, ahora que Callie es una chica independiente?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Callie Vee, Travis, Granddaddy, and the whole Tate clan are back in this charming follow-up to Newbery Honor-winner The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate.

Travis keeps bringing home strays. And Callie has her hands full keeping the wild animals―her brother included―away from her mother's critical eye. Whether it's wrangling a rogue armadillo or stray dog, a guileless younger brother or standoffish cousin, the trials and tribulations of Callie Vee will have readers laughing and crying and cheering for this most endearing heroine.

In this enchanting middle-grade novel, The Curious World of Calpurnia Tate by Jacqueline Kelly, readers will fall deeper in love with our heroine Callie Vee, as she continues her journey to learn more about the world around her and to deal with her wild family.

"The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate is the most delightful historical novel for tweens in many, many years." ―The New Yorker, "Book Bench" section

"In her debut novel, Jacqueline Kelly brings to vivid life a boisterous small-town family at the dawn of a new century. And she especially shines in her depiction of the natural world that so intrigues Callie." ―The Washington Post on The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate
