L lost steam about halfway through so we stopped.

A cute sequel to Emmy and the Incredible Shrinking Rat. I enjoyed the new characters that were introduced and the same villain from the original story. (

Emmy is back, and now she really wants to be a normal girl, not one that can hear rodents talking to her. She struggles, and sometimes fails, to be true. When she finally sees her errors, she does her best to make it right. Good animal fantasy story. (
