New ed. (1969, Random)
(3) 4-6 This reissue of the first book about Merciless Marvin the Magnificent, Fats the Fuse, and Raymond the Rat (minus illustrations from the original) follows the rodent gang's attempts to jack a cheese shop. There's loads of humor in the mouse-centric details (e.g., sneaking around under a popcorn bucket) and the would-be hard-boiled dialogue (much talk about "loot" and "casing the joint").
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
