Emmy and the Home for Troubled Girls

Here is the sequel to Emmy and the Incredible Shrinking Rat. While it has only been a few weeks since Emmy got rid or the evil nanny Miss Barmy, the problems are just beginning. Miss Barmy is now a rat, and just as evil as before. She has some girls trapped in the attic of a shoe store, and uses them for bad (i.e. criminal) purposes; and she has grand plans for a beauty pageant in the rodent community. Emmy will need all her wits, and plenty of friends to thwart the evil one again. Written by Lynne Jonell, illustrated by Jonathan Bean, this story is somewhat more convoluted than the first; but still fun for readers who want to know what happened to Emmy.
