The Tale of Despereaux/YMMV

Book

 * Tear Jerker: You will cry. You will cry a lot.
 * Ugly Cute: Miggery is intended to be pig-like, but when you realize what a sweet person she is, and that she does all of her bad deeds because she's so lonely, you can't help but find her adorable.
 * The Woobie: Despereaux and Mig both qualify.

Film

 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: Bolba the MAN MADE OF FRUIT? Although it's not technically a moment, he could be a BLAM character. WTH?
 * Uncanny Valley: Princess Pea. Her body is the same proportion as the other humans, yet her head is about twice as large with a forehead that could hold a heliport.
