From a simple rabbit to a carefree squirrel and even a group of industrious ants, the rat's insatiable appetite knows no bounds. Beneath the surface of this rollicking adventure lies a valuable moral lesson. As the rat's greed leads him to trick an innocent duck out of its food, children learn the timeless truth that crime does not pay.

Comme d'habitude la collaboration de Julia Donaldson et Axel Scheffler est parfaite ! Une chouette histoire, et des dessins fabuleux ! Je conseille ces livres ! Et pour ceux qui ont la chance de comprendre l'anglais ou de le parler, c'est du velours !

We liked it a lot, it is perfect for 2 - 3 year olds because of the hard pages, but even a 4-5 year old would enjoy it.
