“I am a gentleman.”

I took great pleasure in watching The Tale of Despereaux with my daughter. The story is beautifully told by narrator Sigourney Weaver about a far away kingdom of Dor… lived a brave and virtuous mouse with comically oversized ears who believed in himself and dreamt of becoming a Knight. 

Despereaux broke the law by reading books and talking to a human, so Mouseworld banished him from his home for having such lofty ambitions. 

Despereaux sets off on an amazing adventure with his good-hearted rat friend, Roscuro, who leads him, at long last, on a very noble quest to rescue an endangered princess and save an entire kingdom from darkness. 

The movie includes the voices of Matthew Broderick, Robbie Coltrane, Frances Conroy, Tony Hale, Ciaran Hinds, Dustin Hoffman, Richard Jenkins, Kevin Kline, Frank Langella, Christopher Lloyd, William H. Macy, Charles Shaughnessy, Stanley Tucci, Tracey Ulman and Emma Watson. 

The Tale of Despereaux is a keeper for anyone’s library.  It’s a colorful, engaging story about a special mouse that teaches the lessons of honor, truth and bravery.  “I am a gentleman.”
