The story is about how a girl named Rosella gives a drink of water to a fairy disguised as an old lady. The fairy, Ethelinda rewards her by when ever Rosella talks a jewel comes out of her mouth. Her sister, Myrtle met her too but she was very rude to her, so Ethelinda makes bugs come out of her mouth. A prince comes and asks Rosella to marry her and they live happily ever after!

The Tale of Despereaux by Kate di Camillotale

I think this book is the best! I've read it three times! My favorite part of the book is when Desperaux isn't scared and stands up for himself, sadly he is band from the colony and must go to the dungon. Review by Tiffani
