Book Cover:

Author: Kate DiCamillo
Format: Hardcover
Published: Candlewick Press, 2003

There is a mouse, Despereaux, who loves music, stories, and the Princess Pea. There is a rat, Chiaroscuro, who shuns his dark dungeon home in favor of the light. There is Miggery Snow, the unloved and dim-witted serving girl who dreams of becoming a princess. Together the outcasts just may find happily ever after, fairy tale style. Perfectly written, The Tale of Despereaux is destined to become a classic. Winner of the Newbery Award.
