A city-night mission for Ratnip

Ratnip’s urban world runs on scavenging: dumpsters offer both food and curious finds. In this opening chapter book, one discovery sets up a specific task—returning a treasure to its rightful owner before sunrise. The city setting and rat-sized search make everyday urban scraps the source of both practical needs and adventure. Easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page shape the book’s presentation as an accessible early chapter-book experience.

Book overview

A New York Public Library Best Book of the Year

In this first book of the new chapter book series from the author of Good Dog, meet Ratnip, an adorable rat who goes on adventures in the city that are equal parts sweet and icky!

Ratnip the rat lives in the City, where there's always plenty of food to eat...if you know where to look. Dumpster diving isn't just for finding food, though. It's also for discovering knick-knacks and adventure! And tonight, Ratnip is on a very special mission to return treasure to its rightful owner. But will he make it home before sunrise?

With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Ratnip chapter books are perfect for beginning readers.
