Mrs.Frisby and the Rats of NIMH is a 1971 children's classic that explores themes such as identity, family, and survival. The book's focus on the rats' ability to read appeals to children learning to read. It equates knowing how to read with freedom. Some of the experiments done to the rats described in the book were based on John B. Calhouns research at NIMH. Calhoun studied rodent populations and how overpopulation led to social breakdown. His conclusions were pretty depressing. For this reason, some critics have argued that the subject matter is too dark for children. If you celebrate the freedom to read, this first edition copy of Mrs Frisby and the Rats of Nimh is an excellent addition to your library.
