Then the fateful day arrives when class bully Millicent Mallory teaches them the meaning of the word . . . extermination No sooner have the two rats fled the school than they embark on the wildest adventure of their lives. They follow the trail of the Burmese Bandicoot, a beautiful and mysterious statue, from the underworld lair of the Big Cheese to a tropical island that may not be the paradise it seems.
