Gulliver leads the cushiest life imaginable. His master gives him everything a Lhasa apso could possibly want: a fashionable Manhattan address, a fancy collar, classical music and premium dog food. They even spend summers in Paris! But when his master, the Professor, falls in love with a woman allergic to dogs, Gully is given up! Soon, Gully is swept into a world of adventure, crossing oceans, before learning what it means to truly feel at home.

MEAN MARGARET

Finalist for the National Book Award

"Tor Seidler writes in the great tradition of Kenneth Grahame, Walter R. Brooks, and E. B. White, creating worlds where friendship matters, animals talk, and little girls who listen-even ones as mean as Margaret-can learn a life-changing lot about loving-kindness."-MICHAEL CART, Booklist

THE WAINSCOTT WEASEL

An ALA Notable Children's Book

"It's just possible that not since a spider named Charlotte saved a pig named Wilbur has there been a more tender tale of interspecies love and devotion. Tor Seidler infuses his text with warmth, subtlety, and humor."-The New York Times Book Review

A RAT'S TALE

A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year

"Like Charlotte's Web or The Wind in the Willows, Tor Seidler's delightful new book, A Rat's Tale, is suffused with humor, pathos, and moral beauty."-The Washington Post Book World
