About This Book

A plump young raccoon whose appetite drives him into a sequence of mild, humorous adventures around a swamp and brook. He lives with his mother, a brother, and two sisters in a hollow tree, and many episodes follow his search for food: climbing for eggs, fishing at the water's edge, foraging for corn and berries, and sneaking into smokehouses. Encounters with crows, other woodland creatures, a frightening mistake, playful robberies, and seasonal changes — including loggers' arrival and winter tracks — shape a series of short, self-contained tales that mix mischief, curiosity, and home life.
