Ragweed

By: Avi

Narrated by: John McDonough

The first book in the beloved Poppy series by Newbery Medal–winning author Avi.

A mouse has to do what a mouse has to do. Ragweed is determined to see the world. He leaves his family and cozy country home and sets off by train for the big city. What wonders await him: music, excitement, new friends … and cunning, carnivorous cats!

Silversides is the purring president of F.E.A.R. (Felines Enraged About Rodents), a group dedicated to keeping cats on top, people in the middle, and mice on the bottom. Can Ragweed and his motley yet musical crew of city nice—Clutch, Dipstick, Lugnut, and Blinker—band together to fight their feline foe?

Great story

I love the story! The Narrators voice is a little bit to old . It would sound better with a younger voice, I think 🤔

I realized that all his siblings names are named after plants

I love this book I listened to it nine times and it gets better every time. I can't wait to listen to the rest in the series!
I love how it was about an animal I listen to other books and they are always about people

Cute story

Great chapter book for my third grader. Not so much a fan on the reader choice, but by child had no complaints.

Brilliant

Avi writes one compulsive page turner after another.

This series is the perfect introduction, no matter your age. It’s the perfect book and series.

Avi is from another planet.

Arestor

Loved this series as a kid. Remember my Faith grade teacher reading it to our class during snack time. The performance was great too! Thumbs up all around DUDE!
