Review
In the first volume, the diminutive Hopper, a mouse escapee from a pet shop in Brooklyn, NY, finds himself among the denizens of a subterranean rat empire, Atlantia, searching for his lost siblings. The battle in the previous novel left the civilization in tatters and Hopper and his friends work tirelessly to rebuild. When the tiny mouse is taken and#8220;Uplandand#8221; to the streets of Brooklyn once again, he must form new alliances and grapple with his own unique and challenging destiny. For ravenous readers of Erin Hunter, Brian Jacques, and Kathryn Lasky, this is a not-to-be-missed series.
