I have been a big fan of Kate DiCamillo since I began reading her novels way back when…Because of Winn Dixie (which makes me cry).

The Tale of Despereaux tells a magical story about a mouse in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea (reminds me of a friend who played the Princess in the play). It is ALSO the story of a rat who lives in darkness. It is ALSO the story of Miggery Sow, a serving girl who wants one wish granted.

And, in true fantasy, Camillo tells us, the readers, that it is “our destiny to find out”.

A bit Princess Bride, a tad Mouse and the Motorcycle, a lot Shrek-like (but with a whole lotta charm).

DiCamillo will life kids into a magical world, glitter them with wishes, and fill their hearts with laughter and love.

One movie NOT to miss if you have little ones.
