Unabridged CD. Read by Graeme Malcolm

 

"This is the story of Despereaux Tilling, a mouse in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea. It is also the story of a rat called Roscuro, who lives in darkness but covets a world filled with light. And it is the story of Miggery Sow, a slow-witted serving girl with a simple, impossible wish. These characterrs are about to embark on a journey that will lead them down into a horrible dungeon, up into a glittering castle, and ultimately, into each other's lives."

 

"And what happens then? Listener, it is your destiny to find out."

 

"Kate Dicamillo is the author of Because of Winn-Dixie, a Newbery Honor Book, and The Tiger Rising, a National Book Award Finalist."
