    Has anyone read it? Did you like it? What did you think of the story? I'm reading it for the Read-A-Thon. I think it's pretty good so far.

    I thought The Tale of Despereaux was a very good book, even though it is below my reading level. The end of the story ties everything together perfectly. When I was done reading it, I immediately told my sister that she needed to read it.
    When The Tale of Despereaux came out as a movie, my family went to see it. It was good, but the book was (as in most cases) better.
    I really recommend this book to everyone. It also makes a great read aloud book.

    I heard it when my family listened to the audio book together. That was a long time ago, but I remember liking it. I just recently saw the movie too, and loved it!

    I liked the book pretty well. The movie was alright, but it failed to capture the unique attitude of the book.

    I felt like the story had potential, but the author kept trying to talk to the reader, which she was really bad at, I thought. Haven't seen the movie yet.
