About the Book

The Sunday Times Children's Book of the Week The Times Children’s Book of the Week 'It's ee-awesome' The Times 'Captivating' The Sunday Times __________________________________ Louie doesn't have the best luck when it comes to nurturing small animals - not even lightning bugs, worms or goldfish. So when his father brings home a sickly newborn little donkey, he's determined to save him. Taking care of him helps Louie feel closer to brother Gus, who has just left home. Everyone worries that Winslow won't survive, especially Louie's quirky new friend, Nora. But as his bond with Winslow grows, surprising events prove that this fragile donkey - and Louie - are stronger than anyone could have imagined.

Review :
Sharon Creech's books are full of an understated elegance that perfectly captures children’s emotional lives, and her ability to paint a full, rounded character in just a few lines of dialogue and description is breathtaking. Saving Winslow fearlessly confronts the emotional lives of children, without ever talking down to its young audience. A wonderful story. A wonderful companion read to Charlotte’s Web or Eva Ibbotson’sOne Dog and His Boy and is as deserving of classic status. A beautiful read anyone aged 7+. A funny, tender and uplifting story about making friends and learning to let go. The short chapters and wonderfully warm relationship between the children and the adorable Winslow will appeal to younger readers, but there is also a depth to the story in terms of dealing with loss and relationships which makes this perfect for a wider age range. Heart-warming This heartwarming story is sure to be a hit with fans of E. B. White’s Charlotte’s Web and Kate DiCamillo’s Because of Winn-Dixie. Creech packs a tremendous amount of emotion between the lines of her understated prose. Animal lovers in particular will relish Louie’s hard-won triumphs and find joy in Winslow’s strength. Woven into this narrative is a convincing portrayal of human growth and blossoming—the story is told simply but subtly, celebrating the unexpected strength of the vulnerable. A beautifully written, charming and honest story about kindness, loss and friendship. It would make the ideal read-aloud for a child who loves Charlotte's Web.
