I picked this book up on a whim in the Barnes Noble because I liked the look of the cover and the jagged edges of the paper that gave it a classic feel I was looking for a new bedtime book to read to my children 2 and 6 at the time We like to read a bigger book, one chapter each night for bedtime stories I read the description and thought it sounded like a good idea so I went ahead and bought it which is REALLY unusual for me I can be a cheapskate It is by far some of the best money I have ever [...]
OK, so now that I ve thought about what I really think about this book, I m changing my rating from 3 stars to 2 stars There was that I didn t like than I liked After hearing a lot good reports about this book, I think I was expecting something different I liked the idea of the light versus dark I liked the unlikely friendship between the mouse and the princess I liked the forgiveness And I liked that it ended up happily ever after , for the most part I started out reading this book aloud to my [...]

I remember reading books like this or having them read to me as a kid It was always a frustrating experience, because I never liked when the author would stop the story in order to go back over something Yeah, I got it the first time, I would think to myself Learning, teaching and making sure the kids get it is important, but so is keeping them engaged The story itself is only okay It s nothing terribly exciting and honestly not a lot happens There s an unusual mouse and he wishes to save the da [...]
Absolutely enchanting Full of compassion, sweetness and dreamers, with exquisite word choice and delicate rhythms The narrator s voice is like a comforting but sharply intelligent grandmother, pushing you to both see and feel with the best of yourself I started to read this this this morning for work purposes, I finished it because I couldn t put it down.
Seeing the Light A Book Review of Kate DiCamillo s The Tale of Desperaux Despereaux Tilling is the most unusual mouse you lll likely meet Conspicously small with considerable large ears, he has always been seen as different, an outsider among his own a mouse drawn to music, fascinated with stories, and breaks the strict rule of their kind by falling in love with a human, the Princess Pea.Roscuro leads a normal, rotten rat life in the dungeon, his is a world of utter darkness Until one day, when [...]
3 starsI remember reading this as a child and enjoying it, though I m sure it wouldn t be as good as when I d read it at eleven Therefore, 3 stars seems good enough.
I never knew this was a book I saw the movie of it on one of my bus trips north Or maybe it was on the return trip south Or even both, because I know I saw it twice I thought the movie was wonderful, but as I say, I never knew it had been a book first I just stumbled across the title while browsing at my favorite online used book seller one day and thought Oh, I have to get this And the book was every bit as wonderful as the movie Actually better, because I loved the way DiCamillo would address [...]
This book left me with the feeling that this story may not appeal to all readers There were several important themes addressed in the story, yet little emotional attachment to the characters The only character that many might relate to is Despereaux himself He is different both physically and emotionally from his peers which at first mostly works against him, though ultimately these unique qualities eventually save the day.I did really appreciate the way this author drew in the reader in a direc [...]
Um, I really disliked this book I read it aloud with my 3 and feel like a bad parent for doing so Poor Miggery Sow named after a pig, motherless, traded for next to nothing, abused, and then later described as lazy and fat Crikey And then there was the author s penchant for describing things to the Reader as an aside Despereaux actually has a small part considering the continuous horrors of the story evil rats, fair weathered parents siblings, the Queen s death, and the no soup decree Author, HA [...]
Buku ini saya beli karena covernya mencuri perhatian saya di toko buku Lama sudah nongkrong di rak buku, akhirnya saya baca karena pingin bacaan yang lebih ringan dan bisa lekas diselesaikan.Apa yang dikatakan oleh Anthony de Mello, SJ bahwa orang dapat menolak nasihat, tetapi tidak bisa menolak cerita, itu terbukti Cerita tentang kastil dan kehidupannya Tentang tikus kastil, keluarga dan komunitas tikus kastil, Raja Philip dan keluarganya, komunitas tikus got, serta sipir dan tahanan bawah tana [...]
Two words to describe The Tale of Despereaux sweet and heartwarming In fact, if I were to give it another title, I d call it A Little Mouse in Shining Armor The Tale of Despereaux is the combined stories of three unique characters Despereaux Tilling is born small, but with huge ears He is, however, no ordinary mouse, for he can read, he loves stories and music, and he eventually falls in love with pretty Princess Pea Chiaroscuro, or Roscuro, is a rat who lives in the dungeon, but who longs for l [...]
Some children s books are wonderfully odd Others are just odd The story of Desperaux a mouse who doesn t just want to be a mouse is told through the eyes of several different characters As the stories weave in an out of each other, they draw closer together until the predictably improbably ending Unfortunately, the characters in the world of Desperaux are all two dimensional we are repeatedly told how bad the bad guys rats are, and how good the good guys mice are, and how clumsy a clumsy charact [...]
Reader, you must know that an interesting fate sometimes involving rats, sometimes not awaits almost everyone, mouse or man, who does not conform.This is a cute and entertaining story about an undersized mouse with oversized ears who falls in love with a princess Although this book is geared toward children, the plot and the writing are sophisticated enough that people of all ages should be able to enjoy it I thought it was funny and heartwarming, and I loved the message behind it My only compla [...]
I listened to the story on tape the reading undoubtedly added to my enjoyment and appreciation of it.
A perfect combination of sweet and dark Or light and dark, would be a fitting description, I suppose And by that I don t just mean that there were good deeds and bad deeds, right and wrong and everyone learned a lesson Everyone didn t learn a lesson and some people rats mice were bad, cowardly, or just plain stupid This is nothing like Roald Dahl, but they share a quality that I very much appreciate, particularly in children s lit they let you dislike the unlikeable Everyone is not nice or good [...]
I had high hopes for Kate DiCamillo s The Tale of Despereaux What could I not like It was about a tiny mouse with big ears, ostracized from the other mice, who fell in love with the human Princess Pea Armed with only a sewing needle, Despereaux bravely goes to battle with the devious rats in the palace dungeon who have stolen her I mean, it s got to be great, right So I took it on vacation with my six year old son to read to him at bedtimes.Sadly, the story is slow paced and doesn t contain enou [...]
I was thinking the other day what would you do if you had a negative and I mean really negative opinion on a book but by chance happened to come across its author What would you tell them if they asked you what you thought about their book Without the luxury of the internet or reviews or all the other ways we have of expressing a negative opinion on things without having to come into direct contact with their creator, we tend to be insensitive with our criticism The medium is the message What i [...]
I love this book I love, love, love this book Which is something, because I don t typically love, love, love books and most certainly not books about mice And I m not a big reader of fantasy fairy tales But this book this book I LOVE I read the first few chapters of this book several times before actually reading it I d see it in the library where I work or at home waiting to be read or in a teachers classroom and I always felt compelled to re read the beginning purely for the enjoyment The only [...]
I saw the upcoming movie previews and thought I should read the book This edition is a slim volume with ragged edged paper and lovely charcoal illlustrations.It certainly is an original work Young Despereaux is the youngest mouse, born of a french mouse mother and father He is the runt, small and undersized with big ears He was born with his eyes wide open These ears allow him to hear things other mice don t hear and his eyes observes things other mice don t see Thus the adventure begins Like th [...]
A talking mouse falls in love with a beautiful princess, and, armed with only a needle, vows to rescue her from the clutches of an evil rat and a dull servant girl Admittedly, it sounds a bit okay, very trite That was my mindset too, even after the librarian had gushed on and on about what a wonderful book it was did she think I was going to read some LITTLE KIDS fairytale.But two years ago, I was waiting backstage during a piano concert, bored out of my mind, when I found The Tale of Despereaux [...]
A award winning book about a mouse, a love, a rat, and some soup.
Not many books make me tear up, but when I got to the end of this one yeah, I did Mostly because it s a gorgeous ending, and the author note Priceless 3 Always one of my childhood favorites
If somebody had tried to tell me a month ago that one of my favourite books read in 2012 would have a little mouse as its protagonist, I would have laughed I am not big on anthropomorphic characters I mean, except cats that appear as characters Those I love but mice and other talking things Yeah, no, not my thing at all However, Despereaux calls to mind something warm, something soft, defenseless Like one of those pictures of kittens that are so plentiful on tumblr How do you resist Anyway, the [...]
Just started this two hours ago for the Bibliothon finished it in one sitting It s such a cute and entertaining read I love it just as much this second time than when my mom read it to me years ago It is the story of a little brave mouse, a lost rat, a wishful slave girl, and a sweet princess Their lives all become intertwined I really liked how the author addressed the reader and told some good ethics to the readers So when a young reader reads this they are getting a good message told to them [...]
This is an absolute treasure of a book Everyone needs to read this book no matter what their age is because it is absolutely that wonderful of a book The story seemed so different from what I expected of a fairy tale setting There was a certain level of darkness to this story that was balanced by the happy moments and feelings Despereaux experiences This is why I think this book could be read by anyone at any age.Graeme Malcolm was the perfect choice for this audiobook It was delightful hearing [...]
Lovely, excellent audio Beautiful, convincing narration The ending of the story itself seemed a bit abrupt, but I know I would have loved this as a child.
Way too dark and depressing for a kids book, and scared me out of my mind when I was younger.
The first thing that I enjoyed about this lovely little story was a the whole world revolved around the importance of a good soup and b DiCamillo s use of authorial intrusion A story of a literal battle between those in the darkness and those in the light, Despereaux is full of the author s wit and humour with the narrator herself perhaps being one of the funniest I particularly liked the rich language she uses throughout no dumbing down her for her readers I imagine this being a lovely shared r [...]
Such a charming book I read it alongside with my daughter, and found it inspiring for it contains many different topics to further discussion It does have a bit of too much light dark and good bad, but in the end DiCamillo does a great job to show that it is not always black and white or dark and light I would not try it with kids that are too young since it does have scary parts and meanness so probably about 8 and up, unless your kids are brave.A mouse and a rat that do not belong with their p [...]
