Meet the Carters: Mr. and Mrs. Carter, 10-year-old daughter Keisha,
five-year-old Razi, baby Paolo, and Grandma Alice. Together, they
run Carters' Urban Rescue, the place you call when you've got an
animal where it shouldn't be. In their first adventure, there's a
baby alligator at the city pool, which will seriously interfere
with opening day, especially Keisha's cannonball practice. So it's
up to the whole family to figure out what to do with the poor guy
who has no business hanging around Michigan. Luckily for all of
them, and thanks to some serious ingenuity from Keisha, the answer
is closer than they ever could have imagined.
Sue Stauffacher turns to her first series effort with Animal Rescue
Team. With compelling plots based on actual events in her
community, Sue has created a lovable cast of characters of boys and
girls, young and old, who feel like people you'd meet at your
neighborhood block party. Written in an accessible and engaging
style meant to appeal to those independent readers looking to be
excited and entertained, and with subplots about friendship,
siblings, the environment, and animal conservation, along with
plenty of humor, these will be a hit with teachers and librarians,
and parents, as well as kids themselves.
