Botticelli Remorso is a one eared RAT. The red thread for a rat means that a mouse is coming to the dungon and the rats want to eat the mouse. I think that despereaux is feeling scard and maybe sad but also brave because he is confident that he will save the princess pea ans save the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBotticelli Remorso is a rat that is in the dungeon and he likes to eat mice! I bet if he had the time and chance he could eat Desperaux.
