| The Tale of Despereaux
|
Overview / 简介: |
The heroic adventures of a mouse named Despereaux who isn't afraid of anything-not mousetraps, not the school principal, not even the deepest, darkest dungeon. In this full-color storybook, with special appeal for boys, Despereaux braves the evil Botticelli and a pack of hungry rats, and discovers that even the tiniest mouse can find the courage of a knight in shining armor.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| My sons, ages 6 and 4, are a bit younger than the target audience (8-to-12-year olds) for The Tale of Despereaux so I went to a bookstore to look over the options. That's where I came across this Movie Tie-In Storybook, intended for children ages 4-8.
I also found The Tale of Despereaux: The Graphic Novel and The Tale of Despereaux Movie Tie-In Junior Novelization on the shelves.
However, I could find no compelling reason to pass over the Newbery Medal-winning book, The Tale of Despereaux for any of these inferior movie tie-ins, none of which are an improvement on the original. Movie tie-ins simplify the original story, making it more accessible to younger readers. However, in this case, the original book is already accessible for young children and doesn't need dilution.
This storybook and the paperback edition of the original are eligible for Amazon's 4-for-3 promotion (Buy any 4 eligible items and get the lowest-priced item free.) So, there's no price advantage to choosing the movie tie-in edition over the original either.
In summary, skip the movie tie-in editions and stick with the original, which is accessible to young readers. However, if you're looking for an activity book, Candlewick does offer The Tale of Despereaux Coloring and Activity Book.
BTW: Our introduction to author Kate DiCamillo came by way of her Christmas picture book, Great Joy, which I also highly recommend and gave a 5-star review here on Amazon.
