dawnackroyd 's review for:
The Tale of Despereaux
by Kate DiCamillo
This is one of those books I should have read years ago. I have often heard it talked about but hadn't read it until now. I did get to hear Timothy Basil Eyring speak once though (maybe in 2012?? It was a Kaleidoscope Conference....a conference I still fondly remember!) and he totally sold me on the book.
There are some beautiful themes in this book: forgiveness, redemption, dreaming, love, and of course light...and more.
I read this aloud to my class. I was so struck by the beautiful words. I kept a sticky note pad nearby and mastered the art of reading while grabbing a sticky note and depositing it on the page.
