The characters are rich and the story draws you in. The chapters are short which I think is beneficial for young readers. The ending could be better. We are given the good happy ending, but it happens too quick and given the situation in the dungeon, it happens a little too easy. Despereaux is really good, but I would have to say Edward Tulane is nearly perfect! Despereaux was a good book and I enjoyed having Cheryl read it to me during our long commutes.
