Summary
Twelve-year-old Calla has been keeping a strange secret for two years, she can understand rats. When a very formal rat in a tiny buttoned coat arrives at her dock one evening with six others, Calla is taken underground to discover an entire hidden civilization beneath the hill at the edge of her town. Rat City is real, ancient, and in serious trouble. Ghost ferrets attack every night, and the one thing that kept them away, a powerful bell, was stolen and sold to a witch in the nearby forest. Calla agrees to help get it back. Perfect screen-free entertainment for kids ages 6-11 during car rides and bedtime listening.
