Despereaux

Despereaux Tilling no es un ratón común. Nacido con orejas enormes y un corazón valiente y romántico, se enamora de una princesa humana llamada Guisante, rompiendo todas las reglas de la sociedad de los ratones. Desterrado a la mazmorra por sus sentimientos prohibidos, Despereaux deberá encontrar un valor que no sabía que tenía para salvar a la princesa de una oscura conspiración. Esta querida y galardonada novela entrelaza los destinos de un ratón, una princesa, un plato de sopa y un carrete de hilo en una historia sobre el perdón, la esperanza y el poder del amor y la luz para vencer la oscuridad.

The Tale of Despereaux

Despereaux Tilling is no ordinary mouse. Born with oversized ears and a bold, romantic heart, he falls in love with a human princess named Pea, breaking every rule of mouse society. Banished to the dungeon for his forbidden feelings, Despereaux must summon courage he never knew he had to save the princess from a dark plot. This beloved, award-winning novel weaves together the fates of a mouse, a princess, a bowl of soup, and a spool of thread in a tale of forgiveness, hope, and the power of love and light to conquer darkness.
