The tale of Desparaux is a really good book by Kate DiCamillo. When I first saw the book, I wasn't sure I wanted to read it because it looked so long, and it looked like one of those books that dragged on. I'm really glad I read it, because it was a fantastic and suspenseful book. It was so good that I finished it in three days! It is about a undersized mouse with oversized ears who lives in a castle during the mid evil times, and he was born with his eyes open! He doesn't fit in, everyone knows that....They don't think it'll be any harm to take care of him... Until he starts to talk to the princess. "To the dungeon!" The mice shout at Desparuax's trail (one they've found about his talking to the princess) "Off with is head!" He's lead down to the dungeon with the rats and the prisoners. Then, when the Princess is captured by a jealous servant, it's up to Desparaux to save her.... Will he escape the dungeon and save her? Or will they both be doomed to the dungoen forever? Find out in this exciting adventure with Desparaux!
