The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo

When asked to write a story of an "unlikely hero with exceptionally large ears," award-winning author, Kate DiCamillo, obliges with this beautiful fairy tale full of suspense, mystery and gallant love!  You will love the dry wit of the narrator as she entices the reader to pull for the underdog Despereaux while a spell-binding story of "a mouse, a princess, some soup, and a spool of thread" unfolds.

Rating: 5 Stars
