Emmy & The Incredible Shrinking Rat

My Emily read Emmy & The Incredible Shrinking Rat by Lynne Jonell over Spring Break and passed it over to me telling me I had to read it.
It was a fun read. 
A little scary for younger ones, which my 13 yr old pointed out. 
Emmy, the main character, has a horrible nanny who she can't figure out.  Emmy's parents travel constantly and never seem to care to be around.  She has almost no friends, except for the class pet- Ratson (a rat.)  He talks to her when no one else does (even though he's not very nice sometimes.)
Emmy finds great adventures with Ratson and Joe, a boy from her class, after he is bitten by Ratson.
A secret world of rodents awaits!
