Samenvatting:

The first book in the beloved Poppy series by Newbery Medal–winning author Avi, with illustrations from Caldecott Medal–winning artist Brian Floca, is available as an ebook for the first time!

A mouse has to do what a mouse has to do. Ragweed is determined to see the world. He leaves his family and cozy country home and sets off by train for the big city. What wonders await him: music, excitement, new friends...and cunning, carnivorous cats!

Silversides is the purring president of F.E.A.R. (Felines Enraged About Rodents), a group dedicated to keeping cats on top, people in the middle, and mice on the bottom. Can Ragweed and his motley yet musical crew of city nice—Clutch, Dipstick, Lugnut, and Blinker—band together to fight their feline foe?

• A Country Mouse in the City: Ragweed leaves his cozy country life behind for the music and excitement of Amperville, but the big city holds dangers he never imagined.
• Standing Up to Bullies: The city is run by Silversides and F.E.A.R. (Felines Enraged About Rodents), a club dedicated to keeping mice down. Ragweed must find the courage to fight back.
• A Found Family of Friends: He can’t do it alone. Ragweed teams up with a musical crew of city mice—including the cool, skateboarding Clutch—to take a stand.
• The Perfect Series Starter: From a Newbery Medal–winning author, this is the first adventure in the classic and beloved Poppy series of talking animal stories.
