What Joa is Reading & Other Stuff

Book reviews...from picture books to adult books, as well as books-to-movie info, and other stuff I think is interesting. Note: Not all books reviewed or recommended are appropriate for all ages.

Tale of Despereaux finally coming to theaters!

I'm excited to see that the 1994 Caledecott winner, Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo, is finally to be released as an animated movie on December 19.

This is a great classic story about an unlikely hero...tiny Despereaux. I would very much recommend this story as a read-aloud for a family to read together, as an audio (we have a cassette and CD version of this story), and as as gift, as the book itself is very beautiful and elegant.
