Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH
by Robert C. O'Brien
Summary/Spoiler.
Mrs. Frisby is a widowed field mouse with four small children living in a cinder block in Mr. Fitzgibbon’s farm. It was a winter house which they have moved into since the weather dropped. However the youngest son, Timothy, have gone ill. He was supposed to stay in bed for the next several weeks. But the frost thawed considerably the next day. They would have to move immediately. But with her son in his frailest state, she couldn’t risk letting her children move to their summer house this soon.
Meanwhile under Mrs. Fitzgibbon’s rosebush, a colony of literate rats have been strenuously engaged by their so-called Plan. Not knowing this, Mrs. Frisby humbly asked their assistance in solving her problem with Timothy’s health.
When Mrs. Frisby sat down to have a talk with their leader, Nicodemus, revealed to her the piece of secret that explains their intelligence and Mr. Frisby’s death. Jonathan Frisby was a part of something classified happened in the ‘world’ of NIMH three summers ago. Along with almost two dozen other survivors, The ‘Rats of NIMH’ fled and made a living here. They of course help her wholeheartedly.
Mrs. Frisby’s fortunate meeting with the rats has saved her youngest son’s life and the rats’ lives from death too. Their Plan wouldn’t have been possible without Mrs. Frisby’s courage and loving nature. This peculiar children’s story of the unending determination of a mother mice will always be one of my favorite bedtime stories.
