Description
Meet Mimi and Maty! Mimi is an animal-loving girl and Maty is her three-legged dog. Together, this fantastic duo sets out to rescue any animal that needs help. When their friend George calls and needs to find a missing rat named Roger, Mimi and Maty jump into action! Keeping track of all the clues in their trusty rescue notebook, Mimi and Maty embark on an adventure that involves their nasty friend Icky Vicky and her brother Dicky, the Pom Pom Pie Place, and one smart dumbo rat! Will Mimi and Maty be successful in their first-ever rescue operation? The adventures of Mimi and Maty are brought to life by the delightful and colorful illustrations of Alli Arnold. Inspired by the real-life Mimi Ausland (founder of FreeKibble.com) and her special three-legged dog friend, Maty, this is a special book for animal lovers of all ages. Kids will learn the value of helping out others, including their special animal friends, and hopefully follow in the footsteps of Mimi Ausland, aiding local animal shelters and pet rescues across the country.
