Fans of E.B. White and Dick King-Smith will adore this heartwarming
and funny animal adventure by the award-winning author of New York
Times Bestseller Counting by 7s
Mama has trained up her baby possums in the ways of their breed, and now
it's time for all of them--even little Appleblossom--to make their way
in the world. Appleblossom knows the rules: she must never be seen
during the day, and she must avoid cars, humans, and the dreaded hairies
(sometimes known as dogs). Even so, Appleblossom decides to spy on a
human family--and accidentally falls down their chimney! The curious
Appleblossom, her faithful brothers--who launch a hilarious rescue
mission--and even the little girl in the house have no idea how
fascinating the big world can be. But they're about to find out!
With dynamic illustrations, a tight-knit family, and a glimpse at the
world from a charming little marsupial's point of view, this cozy animal
story is a perfect read-aloud and a classic in the making.
