But Orwell is no ordinary rabbit. It soon seems that he is attempting to reward his young caretaker by mysteriously sending coded messages in the form of predictions: the final score of the Super Bowl, advance notice of a pop quiz at school, tomorrow’s winning lottery number! Can this little rabbit foretell the future? Can Orwell actually make luck happen? Here is a magical and heartwarming story about kindness, friendship, and hope in the shadow of fortune’s ever-turning wheel.

It had fallen, along with a great many others, from a bedraggled parrot trapped in Mrs. Picklestain’s third-grade classroom. Seeing the bird’s poor condition and fearing for its life, Fowler decides to take fate into his own hands. He would need a plan, a place to keep the bird out of sight, and a patsy to blame. But even the best-laid plans can go awry, and Fowler must contend with the many complications and moral dilemmas that arise as he slides down the slippery slope toward a life of crime.
