Ruby and the Sniffs

his is the adventurous tale of one irrepressible mouse's urban bravery-crafted with a clever nod to Goldilocks and featuring the unforgettable character Michael Emberley created in his hit picture book Ruby.Ruby's bright red overalls and backwards baseball cap mark her as a hip heroine who's not afraid to rise to a challenge. And when she hears a commotion in the supposedly vacant apartment upstairs and assumes the racket's being raised by burglars, nothing can keep her from investigating. But when the noisemakers turn out to be the new piggy neighbors--the Sniffs--moving in, Ruby gets an extremely ham-handed welcome!

Michael Emberley is the New York Times best-selling illustrator of You Read to Me, I'll Read to You, written by Mary Ann Hoberman, and has written several books of his own, including Ruby and Dinosaurs! A Drawing Book.
