Meet Roscuro, a rat who used to sail the seas. While visiting the Kingdom of Dor, he accidentally frightened the queen and was chased by the palace guards into the darkness of the dungeon.
Meet Princess Pea. She was once happy and carefree, but now is sad and lonely. Her mother, the queen, frightened by Roscuro, died in her soup. Rats and soup have been banned, and the kingdom has become cloudy and gray.
Enter Despereaux, a very small mouse with exceptionally large ears. He doesn't follow the mouse rules: he doesn't cower and won't scurry. He isn't even afraid of mousetraps. Indeed, stealing cheese from them is his favorite sport. And instead of eating books, like the other mice, he reads them!
This lively junior novelization of the Universal Pictures' animated adventure- based on the Newbery Medal-winning book by Kate DiCamillo- captures the excitement, humor, and romance of the beloved tale of a sad princess, an exiled rat, and a tiny mouse who dreams of being a hero.
