Miss Bianca in the Antarctic (The Rescuers, #6)
by Margery SharpMiss Bianca, possibly the most daring and accomplished heroine in mouse history, in this latest adventure falls into the greatest peril of even her career. While on an errand of mercy to the Antarctic with her loyal companion Bernard, she is stranded midst desolate wastes untrodden by the foot of man, with not a hope of rescue. Even Miss Bianca is daunted by this, but she soon embarks on a whirl of activity, converting the collected works of Shakespeare into a shelter against the icy blast, attending a ball with a group of friendly penguins, and pitting her wits against those of the tyrannical Emperor Penguin. You will not be surprised to hear, though, that the ever resourceful Miss Bianca at last finds her way home again--by a most unexpected means.
Miss Bianca in the Salt Mines (The Rescuers, #4)
by Margery SharpBernard found the note inside the saltcellar--a beautiful early Georgian silver one. Scratched roughly on the scrap of paper were the words, "Someone please get me out of the salt mines. Teddy (age 8)'." The next evening, at the meeting of the M.P.A.S. (Mouse Prisoners' Aid Society), Miss Bianca called for volunteers. Preparations for the rescue would commence at once and be carried out even if Miss Bianca must make the journey alone. Bernard volunteered immediately, of course, but to their dismay, so did the crusty old Professor of Mathematics, later to be joined by the equally wobbly and disagreeable Professor of Geology. "Well, it's certainly going to be a rum rescue party," said Bernard grimly, "with half of it barely able to stand on its feet!" PIctures are described.
