In this book, Squeak the Mouse reveals how readers should go about
choosing pet rats or mice, what supplies they will need, how to make a
new pet rat or mouse feel at home, and how to properly care for pet rats
or mice, including feeding, exercising, and keeping cages clean. Text is
accompanied by clear, labeled photographs to further reinforce key
concepts, and the use of an animal narrator also allows the book to be
used to teach perspective.
