The Tale of Despereaux





I just finished reading an amazing book called The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo. This book is mainly about a mouse falling in love with a princess and the king dislikes mice and rats. The king hates rats because a rat killed the king’s wife. I recommend this book because it has great details such as in the text it stated that the rat was skinny and showed his ribs. If you like reading adventure books and like to laugh you should read The Tale of Despereaux! By Tommy

Editors Note: The Tale of Despereaux is the 2004 Newberry Award Winner. The author, Kate DiCamillo also wrote Because of Winn-Dixie, another favorite of students.
