Synopsis

Ratty wants an adventure. Even a small adventure will do. But where Ratty, Cow and Woolly the lamb are concerned, adventures are never small, and again they face new challenges as they set out on an important mission, rescuing puppies and their mothers from two bad men who have locked them up in a barn. As in the first two books, the warmth and sweetness of the characters, the idiosyncratic charm of the telling and the excitement of the narrative make this a most appealing story, given depth by the dark theme of cruelty to animals.

From the Back Cover

When Chee the chihuahua tells her friend Ratty about some puppies who've been locked up in a barn, Ratty dashes to the rescue. Woolly the fierce lamb, kind Cow, White Horse, Foxy Loxy, and a whole flock of sheep all pitch in. It seems an exciting adventure, but soon they find themselves in fearful danger.

Told in Ratty's own special words, this is a heartwarming story of animals sticking together against the unkindness of two bad men - and winning! It is the third book about Ratty and his friends, following The Road to Somewhere and The Road to the River.
