The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo
4.0

This book was slightly on the scary side for my 6 & 4 year olds. We went through it slowly, reading a chapter a night, and sometimes I had to look ahead to tell my kids it would all be okay. The story overall was interesting, but I wish there had been more soup and less “dear reader, do you know...?”
