hree-and-a-half sweet and silly roommate adventures in this hilarious "gift to reading" (School Library Journal, starred review), the first of a series, from New York Times bestsellers Ame Dyckman and Mark Teague.

What happens when three friends--a bat, a cat, and a rat--move in together?

In "Sharing," Bat, Cat, and Rat find a cozy home to share. But will choosing rooms put their sharing skills to the test?

In "Joking," Rat sets off a series of pranks and shenanigans with his rubber spider that have the trio screaming in surprise and laughing in delight.

In "Reading," Cat catches Bat and Rat reading over her shoulder--or so she thinks, until it turns out they haven't learned to read yet. Can Cat teach her friends to read along with her?
