Ratatouille

Ratatouille is the story of a young rat who follows his dream of becoming a famous chef. He does not let the simple fact that he is a rat, and not a human, stop him from achieving this dream. I thought that the story line in this book followed the plot of the movie very well.

I just received this book, and I'm sure the prose is terrific. But if you're hoping for a book with those great Pixar illustrations -- this isn't it. Or if you're expecting a sort of "art of" book -- this isn't it. In the middle of the 126-page book you'll find 8 color pages with stills (photographs) of the movie. I know, the subtitle clearly says "novel", and that's exactly what it is.
