Cori June (3033 KP) rated Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH (Rats of NIMH, #1) in Books
Jul 20, 2020
That being said the older and mature me rated it a 6 because about 30 pages of interesting history about the Rats of NIMH, were mostly unneeded summary. I realize that the book is meant for young audiences I also gave points off for overly explaining an object or idea. ex: "tin foil (or aluminum foil)" this happens frequently. For a book about animal testing and super intelligent rats, I guess the author could have a point.
This is a good book for young readers that wants to read something that isn't overly scary that has male and female heroes.
The story itself is good. I may never read this book again, although I will recommend it.
