5.0 out of 5 stars Rescue Ferrets Rock!, July 5, 2002

This review is from: Rescue Ferrets at Sea (Ferret Chronicles, No. 1) (Hardcover)

We loved this book! I've always enjoyed reading aloud to my children and Rescue Ferrets at Sea was a special treat for me and my two sons (ages six and eight). Richard Bach does not "write down" to children -- instead he gives us a richly textured fable for all ages filled with action and adventure as well as strong role models both male and female (and furred and feathered). Mostly I just love a book that I can share with my children that is beautifully written and also holds something of interest for me (any parent who has suffered through some of the "Babysitter Club" genre knows what I'm talking about). I am thrilled that the Ferrets are intended to be a series -- we've already finished Air Ferrets Aloft and can't wait for the next Ferret adventure!

5.0 out of 5 stars ADORABLE and please ignore the idiotic review below this one, January 29, 2003

This review is from: Rescue Ferrets at Sea (Ferret Chronicles, No. 1) (Hardcover)

Ferret lovers - any animal lover - will adore this book. Bach, being a ferret owner, captures ferrets in all their wonderful glory and personifies them as rescuers of shipwrecked animals.

The Coast Guard rescues humans - but what about any animals on board? Why the Rescue Ferrets, of course! It's a wonderful tale that will delight both young and old. I have all three books in the "Ferret Chronicles" and can't wait till he writes the next one.

Very well written, the story moves right along and Bach's attention to detail makes you feel like you're right there in the action. Great job, Mr. Bach :)

PS: ferrets are not vicious and my five have never bitten anyone. However, if the idiot in the prior review ever met mine I wouldn't stop them heh heh

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Ferret Fairy-Tail Series Ever!, August 24, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Rescue Ferrets at Sea (Ferret Chronicles, No. 1) (Hardcover)

Richard Bach is a wonderful author. I wish I could write as well as him! The Ferret Chronicles is special, because there aren't many children's books that encourage the reader that a ferret is a wonderful animal. My daughter has two ferrets, and she really enjoys these books. On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate these books eleven!
