Yay! Another great book by Kate DiCamillo ! The Beatryce Prophecy is quite similar to one of the author's previous books: The Magician's Elephant (I read a reviewed that book here ) .  They are both books about a prediction of the future, and the different characters we follow all come together that make the prediction true. This book is set in a medieval setting and mostly follows a girl named Beatryce, a girl who has no memory of her past. But she mostly has a memory of something traumatic that happened to her that she is trying to forget. Beatryce is found by a goat named Answelica and a monk named Brother Edik. Beatryce becomes friends fast with the goat Answelica, and Brother Edik lets her live in his monastery where she can write and read freely, but she has to pretend to be a boy and be mute so no one finds out she is actually a girl, as in this setting it is forbidden for women to learn and know how to read and write. Beatryce is eventually summoned to write something...
