Book
Skunk and Badger / by Amy Timberlake ; with pictures by Jon Klassen.
NO ONE WANTS A SKUNK. They are unwelcome on front stoops. They should not linger in rock rooms. Skunks should never, ever be allowed to move in. But Skunk is Badger's new roommate, and there is nothing Badger, who prefers to be left alone with his important Rock Work, can do about it. Skunk plows into Badger's life, and Badger's life is upended. Rocket Potatoes are left in corners. Tails are flipped. The wrong animal is sprayed. And why-oh-why are there so many chickens? Newberry Honor author Amy Timberlake spins the first tale in a series about opposites who need to be friends in a book to read, re-read, and read out loud again and again, with full-color illustrations and additional black-and-white drawings by Caldecott Medal-winning artist Jon Klassen. -- Provided by publisher.
