The Red Hot Rattoons

Elizabeth Winthrop narrates her delightful story of orphaned rats who decide to become a dancing troupe. Since their parents were jazz musicians, this is a perfect choice. Like any new act, the Rattoons have their share of ups and downs until they finally hit the big time. Winthrop is assisted by Full Cast Audio's outstanding narrators. Each brings a quirky addition to this success story. Winthrop also includes some excellent life lessons, such as the prejudice that the rats face as they fend for themselves. Although a bit long for young listeners, the story is a clever and funny glimpse at show business life. S.G.B. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine
