This beautifully illustrated rhyming story will hopefully spark something in kids. A very independent young skunk is urged to get outdoors. There are many activities that could appeal out there, everything from soccer to fishing to forts to wishing wells and more. The author and illustrator do a fine job of showing that these past times can offer as much of a good time as the things that are done indoors. I do note that our young skunk has minimal supervision so parents may want to address this if they feel the need.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions are my own.
