The Tale of Despereaux

Despereaux Tilling — a mouse too small, ears too big, and heart too brave for the rules of mice — falls in love with a princess and is condemned to the dungeon for it. Kate DiCamillo braids his tale with a light-starved rat named Chiaroscuro and a serving girl who dreams of a crown, until all three meet in the dark below the castle.
