The sixth book in the beloved Poppy series by Newbery Medal-winning
author Avi, with illustrations from Caldecott Medal-winning artist Brian
Floca
There's trouble at Gray House, the girlhood home that Poppy left long
ago. Poppy's family has called her back to save them all--mother,
father, sisters and brothers, and dozens and dozens of deer mouse
cousins.
Poppy invites her rebellious son, Junior, to join her on the long trip
across Dimwood Forest, hoping the journey will bring them closer
together.
But with Junior's skunk pal, Mephitis, and Ereth, the cantankerous
porcupine, in tow--sugared slug soup!--Poppy and Junior may be in for
unexpected adventure.
