內容簡介: |
When Jimmy Skunk curls up to take a nap in an old barrel, the imp of mischief gets the better of Peter Rabbit. Tons of trouble plague the long-eared prankster after he decides it''d be great fun to see the barrel — with Jimmy inside — roll down from its resting point high on a hill.
Reddy Fox gets the blame for Jimmy''s wild ride as well as a dose of the skunk''s "perfume"; Peter gets his comeuppance for playing nasty tricks; and before the day is out, Jimmy Skunk and Unc'' Billy Possum go egg-hunting and wind up in a pretty pickle in Farmer Brown''s henhouse.
Children will delight in these warm, whimsical adventures that combine all the interest and excitement of a good story with gentle lessons about nature, wildlife and such virtues as courtesy, kindness, and preparedness.
Newly reset in large, easy-to-read type, the text is enhanced by six black-and-white illustrations by Thea Kliros, based on Harrison Cady''s originals.
