charity_royall_331 's review for:

The Mouse and His Child by Russell Hoban
3.0

I went in with different expectations, I guess, and didn't enjoy how harrowing it turned out to be. There's also a lot of engineering detail in the second half of the book that made it drag. I think Kate DiCamillo must have been heavily influenced by this book; it gave me a lot of the same feelings that "Edward Tulane" and "The Tale of Despereaux" did.
