Emmy And The Rats In The Belfry (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
The midday sun beat down on the triangular green, wilting its patchy grass. One tree cast a spindly shade over a single park bench and a low planting of yews. Behind them, almost hidden, Emmy sat on the ground with her chin on her knees. The patch of shade was getting smaller, and she was sweating. She stared moodily at the empty pet carrier and wished again that Ana hadn’t gotten Ratty to bite her twice. Sure, Ana was having all kinds of fun visiting Rodent City as a rat, but meanwhile Emmy was stuck waiting around at the back entrance. Because of course she couldn’t shrink now. Ana would need both Sissy-patches—one to turn human and one to grow. Ratty had told Emmy she should shrink anyway. “Sissy just went to get the mail,” he had insisted in the professor’s apartment. “She’ll be back soon.” But Emmy didn’t want to take the chance. Enough had gone wrong already; she didn’t want to risk missing the party when her parents were coming. Then, too, if the professor was right and it had been Miss Barmy who had stolen the patches, who knew what she might be planning?
