    In this charming picture book, Lucas and his family adjust to their new urban wildlife neighbor ... a SKUNK! Along the way they learn all about these surprisingly amiable animals: their favorite things to eat, their preferred places to stay, their friends and enemies, and even how to get rid of their smell. 

    -----

    Author and wildlife expert Gary Bogue highlights skunks’ sweet natures (odiferous spray notwithstanding), and full-color illustrations by Chuck Todd add even more information to this fact-packed story.
