New York Times bestselling author/illustrator and Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen completes the book with his signature lushly textured art. Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake spins the first tale in a series about two opposites who need to be friends. And why-oh-why are there so many chickens? When Skunk plows into Badger’s life, everything Badger knows is upended. But Skunk is Badger’s new roommate, and there is nothing Badger can do about it.
Skunks should never, ever be allowed to move in. They should not linger in Important Rock Rooms. Klassen's illustrations have a nostalgic feel that pair nicely with Timberlake's narrative. What do you do when you mess up? I mean really mess up, not just sort-of mess up, and everyone knows it? Skunk and Badger is perfect for the 8- to 10-year-old crowd, but a fine read for people of all ages. Tomorrow is the release day for Skunk and Badger, a delightful story by Amy Timberlake with pictures by Jon Klassen. In a volume that includes full-colour plates and additional black-and-white illustrations by Caldecott medalist Jon Klassen, Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake takes readers on a second adventure in the new series reviewers have called an instant classic, with comparisons to Frog and Toad, Winnie-the-Pooh, and The Wind in the Willows.New Release!
