The Adventures of Jimmy Skunk

Thornton Waldo Burgess and Harrison Cady

Peter Rabbit plans a joke involving an old barrel, and Jimmy Skunk ends up very mad indeed. What follows is a Green Forest lesson in why you never, ever prank a skunk. Burgess spins dignity, revenge, and reconciliation into bedtime gold with Cady's pictures alongside. Downwind is the place to read it. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
