In the book, "Despereaux", by Kate DiCamillo, Despereaux the mouse has broken the mouse rules by letting a human see and touch him. Not only that, but he spoke to the human as well, which happened to be the King's Princess Pea. When speaking in front of the Head Mouse, he stated something along the lines of, "I love the Princess Pea". For that, he was sent to the dungeon for breaking the mouse rules.

Despereaux loved the Princess Pea, she was kind, beautiful. However she was a human, and it was strictly stated in the rules of mice to not fall in love with a human, better yet, a princess. That didn't mean he would give up, no, Despereaux believed in happy endings. He believed that he could indeed love the Princess Pea.

Miggery Sow wanted to be a princess, that was her dream. Sadly, no one supported her. Soon she lost her dream, she never became a princess at all.

This book sends a great message, If you truly believe in something, then always believe in it. Miggery Sow did not believe enough to reach for her goal. In fact, because no one supported her, she soon believed what they were saying was true. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dream. Believe.
