1-3Class Pets series.
Illustrated by
John Kanzler.
Sister and brother mice settle into new surroundings at an elementary school. Cheerful Molly makes friends with the class pets, especially two lovebirds and the ghost of a hamster. Jake winds up having an adventure of his own with a cat. Second in a series, this chapter book is likable and fast paced, but the combination of realism, animal fantasy, and ghost story doesn't quite jell.
