The Rescuers is
nothing like Anne Schraff’s other books.
Days to the mall had always been fun for Chelsea, but this
day was very different. Heading down the road, Chelsea and her brother notice a
man holding a bloody animal. Having no idea who he was or what he was holding,
Jaris stopped the car and asked the man what he had been up to. The man walks
toward the car, “Shadrach, Shadrach the opossum rescuer.”
The Rescuers happens to be about a teen girl and group of
friends wanting to help Shadrach protect and save opossums that have gotten
hit. Helping one of many opossums, they find one that is similar but different,
Magic. Magic getting better and better each day made him get closer to having
to be set back into the wild. Chelsea loving animals like she did, made her
always watch the road. Sereeta, Jaris’ girlfriend, Jaris, and Chelsea were
headed to the mall another day and Chelsea noticed another opossum and surely
wanted to help it. Jaris, stopping the car, Chelsea ran to it and noticed that
it wasn’t just an opossum, but it was Magic.
Other than not being able to understand all the characters
and what the loved most about animals most, this story is recommended for
anyone who is an animal lover and loves being involved. The title gives the
story one meaning but once you read it you understand that you don’t have to
save a humans life to be a rescuer.
