  9. A brief summary: Edward Tulane is a china rabbit given to a seven-year-old girl named Abilene by her grandmother. He enjoys a pleasant but vain life with his young mistress, who treats him with the utmost love and respect, until an unfortunate incident finds him falling overboard while vacationing on an ocean liner. Edward spends 297 days in the ocean's depths, until a passing fisherman pulls him free. Edward is passed from hand to hand of a succession of life-altering characters, such as a hobo and a girl with pneumonia and her brother. Edward's journeys not only take him far from home, but even farther from the selfish rabbit he once was. Edward is eventually cruelly broken against a counter top edge and then repaired and offered for sale in a doll store for several years, and is bought by Abilene, who is now in her 20's, for her 5-year-old daughter. During his travels he learns the value of love and loss and the undeniable message that loving and losing is better than never having loved at all.
