I think I'd partly forgotten just how excellent this book was, and how well it holds up to adult rereads. For something that's well over fifty years old now, it's amazing how topical some of its themes still are, especially when it comes to genetic engineering, environmental impacts, and sustainability. Plus the characters are wonderful.

This was always one of my favorite movies as a child, though I still love it now, and I was very excited to read the book. I wasn't disappointed. This book was thoroughly entertaining and extremely amusing. I loved it from the very beginning. Mrs. Frisby and her family were loving, resourceful, and easy to like. I loved reading about the rats and their adventures

This was a wonderful story about heroism and courage and it will worm it's way into your heart. The story is very well written and the characters are those with depth and are extremely memorable. This story is an adventure that you won't be able to leave and you'll be sad when the story ends. This book is easily one of my favorites and I'm glad I read it!

I gave this book 5 magical stars!
