But what should have been a death sentence becomes the beginning of a sweeping big-city adventure in this \"charming\" (\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e) novel by National Book Award- nominated author Tor Seidler.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePhoenix is a pretty big deal in his neck of the woods: The largest in his litter with the most lustrous fur and by far the bushiest tail, he's one of the most sought-after squirrels in New Jersey--which makes his kidnapping by hawk even more dramatic. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLuckily, the hawk doesn't have the best grip. Unluckily, he drops Phoenix on a freshly-tarred street in downtown Manhattan. Now stripped of his gorgeous golden-brown coat, Phoenix looks like nothing more than a common sewer rat. Fortunately for Phoenix, it's not a pack of sewer rats that find him (they're a notoriously surly bunch), but rather wharf rats. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTaken in by siblings Lucy and Beckett, Phoenix is welcomed into a rat pack living in abandoned piers on the Hudson. But when they learn of plans to demolish the piers, Phoenix is swept up in a truly electrifying scheme to stop the humans from destroying his new friends' home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/25\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781534426856\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.30w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e503384 \/ Oh, Rats!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 9\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Tor Seidler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36657500618908,"sku":"9781534426856","price":7.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_40dcf146-3e4d-47a6-b4d7-e4ff8e56d336.jpg?v=1603890762","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/oh-rats-9781534426856","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
