I Was A Rat! by Philip Pullman
Or, The Scarlet Slippers
A small, bedraggled boy is rescued and taken into a kindly household, but he keeps insisting — in one stubborn, puzzling phrase — that he used to be a rat. His baffling behavior, fierce loyalty, and literal-mindedness unsettle the people around him and soon attract public attention, forcing adults to confront questions of identity, responsibility, and compassion as they try to discover who he really is and what kind of life he deserves.
