The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo
Despereaux Tilling, a small mouse with big ears and an even bigger heart, dreams of adventure and love instead of living like other mice. When he’s banished to the castle dungeon, his courage is tested as he sets out to rescue a princess and prove that even the smallest hero can make a big difference.
