The Refuge Adventure (B'rats Tales) - Softcover

Malachi and B'rats are on a mission: get out of the city before the city gets them. When these unlikely friends set out on a journey to reach a distant wildlife refuge in hopes of gaining some sense of peace, they discover the perils of living at the bottom of the food chain are not just confined to dark city alleys. Along their way B'rats, the pessimistic and self-serving rat, sees trouble at every turn. Malachi, an empathetic mouse determined to help any creature in need, helps his friend navigate the countryside as they search for the refuge they hope will allow them to enjoy their lives doing the things that rodents do. It's a long journey, and the two meet many other wildlife friends, and enemies, along there way. During their journey, Malachi and B'rats encounter opossums, friendly raccoons, protective birds, hungry snakes, harmless skunks, a family of beavers, and an owl with a sense of self-control rare in any wildlife species that survives on a diet of small mammals. Come along with Malachi and B'rats, and let them take you on your own refuge adventure.
