這本書主要在描寫住家王宮裏的老鼠(Mouse)Despereaux、住在地下牢裏的老鼠(Rat)Roscuro、一心想成為公主的女侍Mig及小公主Pea這四個的故事。愛慕著公主的Despereaux如何在所有族人的反對下堅持自己的愛，在最後關頭救出被關在牢裏的公主。因為「光」的綠固而在無意間成了殺死皇后的主兇的Roscuro如何展開對人類的復仇計劃，而最後又是什麼原因讓他在最後一刻放棄了呢？而這整個故事又跟從小被父親賣掉的女孩Mig有什麼關係呢？相當有趣的故事，適合12歲以上兒童閱讀。
A charming story of unlikely heroes whose destinies entwine to bring about a joyful resolution. Foremost is Despereaux, a diminutive mouse who, as depicted in Ering's pencil drawings, is one of the most endearing of his ilk ever to appear in children's books. His mother, who is French, declares him to be "such the disappointment" at his birth and the rest of his family seems to agree that he is very odd: his ears are too big and his eyes open far too soon and they all expect him to die quickly. Of course, he doesn't. Then there is the human Princess Pea, with whom Despereaux falls deeply (one might say desperately) in love. She appreciates him despite her father's prejudice against rodents. Next is Roscuro, a rat with an uncharacteristic love of light and soup. Both these predilections get him into trouble. And finally, there is Miggery Sow, a peasant girl so dim that she believes she can become a princess. With a masterful hand, DiCamillo weaves four story lines together in a witty, suspenseful narrative that begs to be read aloud. In her authorial asides, she hearkens back to literary traditions as old as those used by Henry Fielding. In her observations of the political machinations and follies of rodent and human societies, she reminds adult readers of George Orwell. But the unpredictable twists of plot, the fanciful characterizations, and the sweetness of tone are DiCamillo's own. This expanded fairy tale is entertaining, heartening, and, above all, great fun.
