Mattimeo (Redwall, Book 3)
Preparations for the feast for the Summer of the Golden Rain  are underway at Redwall Abbey, and young Mattimeo's mother sets him to  work with the other inhabitants. His father, Matthius, is the guardian  of Redwall Abbey and it is this fact that puts the young Mattimeo in  danger, as the evil Slagar the Fox plots to kidnap him in a bid to  shake the very foundations of the Abbey and its inhabitants.Rip-roaring adventure at its very best, Mattimeo is one of the  exquisitely executed and totally bewitching tales in the best-selling  Redwall series. Brian Jacques, with his masterly use of language and  enviable talent for descriptive prose that transports the reader to the  very heart of Redwall, magically weaves an epic tale breathtaking in  proportion and design. Utterly addictive, Mattimeo is packed with so  much color, passion, fury, and love that it will leave readers  desperate for more.--Susan Harrison--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
