Publisher's Synopsis
Stephan Pastis sketches this nuanced comic strip tale, which features the arrogant, self-centred, and totally hilarious Rat, who leads his four-legged friends through misadventure after misadventure. Joining him for the journey are Pig, the slow but good-hearted conscience of the strip; Goat, the voice of reason that often goes unheard; and Zebra, the activist and the eternally inept Crocodiles who pursue him. Together this mindful menagerie mocks the flaws and shortcomings of human nature through Pastis' cynically biting wit.
