To the dungeon

What is chapter thirty mainly about?

While Mig is trying (and failing) at many castle chores, what are Despereaux and Roscuro doing?

As Mig heads down the dungeon stairs, Kate DiCamillo points out that the day before, someone else in our story had gone down those same stairs.

Who went down these stairs the day before?

What does Mig do as she goes down into the dungeon?

Look towards the beginning of chapter thirty, where the author describes Mig. Kate DiCamillo writes, "…she was a bit slow–witted."

In this context, what does "slow–witted" mean?

Were there any events that weren't clear to you?
