The Tale of Despereaux: Being the Story of a Mouse, a Princess, Some Soup, and a Spool of Thread

by Kate DiCamillo, Timothy Basil Ering

Available now★★★★★

Despereaux is a tiny mouse with big ears who loves music, stories and a human princess. This gentle, brave tale follows him, a servant girl who dreams of being a princess, and a sly rat who wants to ruin them all. It is a warm story about courage, forgiveness and light, and it works beautifully as a read-aloud or for children reading on their own.
