Overview
Despereaux Tilling is a tiny mouse with huge ears—and an even bigger heart. Unlike other mice, Despereaux falls in love with music, books, and a human princess. His courageous quest takes him from the depths of a dungeon to the heights of heroism. Told in a lyrical, storyteller’s voice, this Newbery Medal winner is a beautiful tale of light and darkness, love and bravery.
