The gentle, old-fashioned animal stories of Thornton W. Burgess, told with great warmth and charm, draw young readers into the timeless world of the creatures who live in the Green Forest and around the Smiling Pool. In this engaging episode, Bobby Raccoon suffers a series of mishaps.

This series brings back fond memories of when I was young
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is one of the books in the "Old Mother West Wind" series. It's all about the adventures of various woodland animals, and each book is focused on a specific woodland friend.While these books will not tickle the fancy of an older reader, the young-at-heart love them. Rereading this book brought back many memories of reading this series when I was much younger. I recommend this book to any nostalgic adults or those with young children.
Easy reading but interesting story!

This book is very suitable for young readers. It is about a little boy taking care of an injuried raccoon. Later on, the raccoon recovered and longed to return to the forest so the boy let him go. The plot it fairly simple, but it makes a good lesson as well as an entertainment.
