I have broken this book study for The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo up into six parts for the specific vocabulary and recall questions. There are also chapter by chapter questions (NO PREP and task card options for those), and a whole book/after book assessment that can be used as a test. That assessment has multiple formats included.
