Sobre este artículo
This wonderful chapter book won the Newbery Medal, in 2004, for its author Kate DiCamillo. DiCamillo's work is noted for its memorable, sympathetic characters--in this case a determined mouse as he endeavors to rescue a human princess from a band of rats. Full page black-and-white illustratons by Timothy Basil Ering grace the story; the publisher has taken the extra step of providing deckle-edged pages. This copy is pristine -- 1st printing, 1st edition with dust jacket unclipped (unpriced), signed by the author on the title page. Collectible.
Sinopsis
The Tale of Despereaux, also known as The Tale of Desperaux: Being the Story of a Mouse, a Princess, Some Soup, and a Spool of Thread is a 2003 Newbery Medal winning children's fantasy book written by Kate DiCamillo. It tells the story of a mouse, named Despereaux, on a quest to rescue a beautiful human princess. The book was adapted into an animated film in 2008. The novel is divided into four books and a coda. Each book tells the story from the perspective of a different character.
Reseñas
El Oct 7 2014, un lector dijo:
It was interesting to see how the strings all came together at the end. A tale about a mouse falling in love with a princess is quite a premise, but DiCamillo is so good, I think her book Edward Tulane is even better.

Specializing in contemporary (20th century) children's books. Passionate about good literature. Many offerings are first edition, first printing. Some curiosities will appear in my listings (perhaps neither children's books or first edition but interesting).
