The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo

4.0

What a cute little book! I was always interested in this book, as it had such huge praise and won awards, so when Amazon Kindle had it as their daily deal for $0.99 I jumped on it. And I am so pleased that I did. The tale of Desperaux was written so smoothly and perfectly for kids, as the narrator acknowledges the reader throughout the whole novel. What was so nice too is that it teaches kids that although you may be an outcast don't ever give up on your hopes and dreams. It also teaches about forgiveness in such a sweet way. The characters were adorable and I just wanted to scoop Despereaux up in my hand. Definitely a must read!
