Title:  Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nihm
Author Robert O'Brien
Series: Rats of Nihm

Reviewed by: Leksy R. '12

Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh is a very interesting story about a widow mouse and her family. It is time to move to the summer quarters for Mrs. Frisby and her family of four mice, but this must be done quickly because the farmers are ready to plow their land. Soon before they need to move, Timothy gets pneumonia and cannot be moved. She goes to the doctor, but he cannot cure Timothy before the time comes to move. Many people try to help her with the problem. Mrs. Frisby is finally sent to the rats. These rats are very intelligent. They tell her about her husband and how he really died, and a story that she must not tell anyone in her life. She thinks they can save Timothy and her family, but can they?

I rate this book a 10, because the story that the rats tell is fascinating.
