the tale of despereaux
1 journaler for this copy...
I picked this up from Little Free Library #35712. I left Speed Cleaning.
From amazon.com:
Welcome to the story of Despereaux Tilling, a mouse who is in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea. It is also the story of a rat called Roscuro, who lives in the darkness and covets a world filled with light. And it is the story of Miggery Sow, a slow-witted serving girl who harbors a simple, impossible wish. These three characters are about to embark on a journey that will lead them down into a horrible dungeon, up into a glittering castle, and, ultimately, into each other's lives. What happens then? As Kate DiCamillo would say: Reader, it is your destiny to find out.

A cute story... well written, but I expected more of a payoff from all the foreshadowing and buildup.
