Today is Monday.

Despereaux Tilling lived. But his existence caused speculation in the mouse community. He was the smallest one in mouse history and he had the biggest ears that was looked as if they were donkey ears. His uncle Alfred and aunt Florence thought they were obscenely large. And his born with his eyes opened was ridiculous. He was abnormal. He could hear the sweet sound of honey. His father asked him not hear the strange sound. He sniffed on the floor like his siblings, but actually he listened the sound of foods. His brother taught him to scurry in the castle, but he just stared at the light through the window and thought it was like the heaven. His sister took him into a library and told him how to nibble the edge of a book.  And she told him the squiggles on the book was delicious. Despereaux looked at the books and the squiggles on the page. He realized those squiggles were arranged in regular shapes and they spelled out a delicious and wonderful phrase, once upon a time. He didn't want to ruin the story by eating the book.
