Why read it?
1 author picked Walter as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the tale of a writer and reader who share a house. The writer, however, is a reclusive human and the reader a rat longing for a friend. The author’s approach is clever and subtle. And while I’m naturally drawn to books about writers, it was the rat that captivated me. I read this book rather quickly. I had to know if Walter could find his way through the difficulty of loneliness.
From Joan's list on children’s stories with rat or mouse adventures.
