Download or read book Rats written by Robert Sullivan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-12-11 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Public Library Book for the Teenager New York Public Library Book to Remember PSLA Young Adult Top 40 Nonfiction Titles of the Year "Engaging...a lively, informative compendium of facts, theories, and musings."-Michiko Kakutani, New York Times Behold the rat, dirty and disgusting! Robert Sullivan turns the lowly rat into the star of this most perversely intriguing, remarkable, and unexpectedly elegant New York Times bestseller. Love them or loathe them, rats are here to stay-they are city dwellers as much as (or more than) we are, surviving on the effluvia of our society. In Rats, the critically acclaimed bestseller, Robert Sullivan spends a year investigating a rat-infested alley just a few blocks away from Wall Street. Sullivan gets to know not just the beast but its friends and foes: the exterminators, the sanitation workers, the agitators and activists who have played their part in the centuries-old war between human city dweller and wild city rat. Sullivan looks deep into the largely unrecorded history of the city and its masses-its herds-of-rats-like mob. Funny, wise, sometimes disgusting but always compulsively readable, Rats earns its unlikely place alongside the great classics of nature writing. With an all-new Afterword by the author

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rat: Amazing Pictures & Interesting Facts for Kids A rat is an animal with a long hairy body. It has a long, thin tail and two pairs of legs. Even though its legs are shorter and smaller than yours, a rat can still run faster than you. Compared to a mouse, a rat is bigger and its legs are much longer. A rat also has small sharp teeth than can gnaw and nibble on wood, books, clothes, and anything hard. Rats are said to come from Australia and Asia, but now, they can be found in every part of the world. Rats love to travel and they travel by boat. This is why they were able to go to everywhere. There are many types of rats. There are about 60 breeds of them but the most common are the house and the brown rats because they were the ones who rode boats and traveled all over the world. A group of rats is called a mischief. Maybe it's because rats are indeed a mischievous lot. Male rats are called bucks, while female rats are called does. Baby rats are called kittens or infants, but some call them "pinkies" because newborn rats are pink in color.

Download or read book Doctor Rat written by William Kotzwinkle and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This World Fantasy Award winner in the vein of Animal Farm delves into a lab worthy of a mad Nazi scientist—but run by a brilliantly sadistic rodent. In the annals of American literature, there has never been a character quite like Doctor Rat, PhD. From one of the most indispensable storytellers in speculative fiction, this biting satire introduces a narrator of learned charm and humor, and a twisted logic that is absolutely chilling. Doctor Rat is a credit to his species. A survivor of the most refined scientific experiments, now removed from the maze, he has become a valued and productive member of the academic community. When he must administer a lethal dose, he comforts his fellow rats with his compassionate slogan: “Death is freedom.” But everything changes when animals worldwide begin to rebel, refusing to accept their proper places in the natural order of things: as test subjects, pets, or food. And only Doctor Rat has the courage to defend mankind from the ungrateful animal kingdom. Hailed by the Los Angeles Times as “dazzlingly original” and “occasionally quite beautiful,” Doctor Rat is a sly and stylish indictment of fanaticism in mice and men. “A truly imaginative impresario . . . [Doctor Rat] teases your conscience with educated wit and versatile improvisation, not to mention the casual flick of the tail about to be cut off.” —Kirkus Reviews
