Books in The Rats of Nimh series
Mrs Frisby and the Rats of Nimh
Style: Classic
Attitude: Take Care → Positive
Widowed fieldmouse Mrs Frisby turns to the rats for help when her family's house is threatened, only to find them abnormally intelligent and with technology.
A gentle story, highlighting a mother's love for her children and the risks she'll take to help them. Normal animal behaviour combined with intelligent actions and, in the case of the laboratory-enhanced Rats, developed technology which they're giving up.
