RASCAL

Written by Sterling North; unabridged reading by Jim Weiss.

Who could resist living for a year with a raccoon who is just about your best friend? Imagine yourself as Sterling North, a boy of 11, who has just found himself the caretaker of a baby raccoon roughly the size of his hand. You’ve watched in amazement as he instinctively washes everything before eating it. You know that every night Rascal will sneak into the house by hooking his claws onto the back screen door just the right way, and head straight for your bed! Virtually everywhere you go, Rascal will be there, and life is filled with one adventure after another.

"Everyone should knock off work, sit under the nearest tree, and enjoy Rascal " —Chicago Tribune
