Why only "political" orientated books and not books on Art? This Library is like a whisp of the will to create a Reading/Writing/Listening Group, inside the Art Collective. But now the Vegan Rats wish the Listening Room to be just for the purpose of Listening (not singing or reading or even talking aloud!) So we're all getting to know each other better --they say.

LITTLE RAT, WHO MADE THEE?

Little rat, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee,
Gave thee life, and bade thee feed
By the stream and o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, wooly, bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little rat, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?

Little rat, I'll tell thee;
Little rat, I'll tell thee:
He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a rat,
He is meek, and He is mild,
He became a little child;
I a child, and Thee a Rat,
We are called by His Name.
Little rat, God bless thee!
Little rat, God bless thee!
