Retell

The title of my book is "The Tale of Desperaux" it is written by Kate DiCamillo. The genre of my book is fiction. I have not read any others by this author. The main settings are: the castle walls and the dungeon. Nothing really got me interested into reading this book. This story starts off in the castle walls when a small mouse named Despereaux was born who was abnormal with such big ears. One day he saw a human princess and talked to her but his brother saw him and talking to a human defies the laws of the mice so he was sentenced to: DEATH. Will Despereaux survive? Or will he die?
