Synopsis

A daring rescue, undying loyalty, and true love fill the pages of Tor Seidler&;s beloved tale, rightfully compared to Charlotte&;s Web by The New York Times.

Bagley isn&;t your typical trouble-making weasel&;and he doesn&;t mind if his non-weaselly ways prompt teasing from his friends. For while other young weasels dance under the pines, Bagley thinks about Bridget, the mesmerizing fish who lives in a pond down the brook from his den. As the two unlikely friends grow closer, Bagley realizes that there is big trouble in Bridget&;s future. Only a true hero can save Bridget from the gruesome fate that awaits her, and this is exactly what Bagley, much to his own surprise, proves himself to be.

Tor Seidler&;s &;engagingly imaginative story&; (Kirkus Reviews) has been a treasured favorite since its original publication in 1994, and this edition features refreshed prints of Fred Marcellino&;s &;exceptionally expressive art&; (Publishers Weekly).
