Summary

Wallace and Gromit meets Winnie-the-Pooh in a fresh take on a classic odd-couple friendship, from Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake. 

No one wants a skunk. They are unwelcome on front stoops. They should not linger in Important Rock Rooms. Skunks should never, ever be allowed to move in. But Skunk is Badger's new roommate, and there is nothing Badger can do about it. 

When Skunk plows into Badger's life, everything Badger knows is upended. Tails are flipped. The wrong animal is sprayed. And why-oh-why are there so many chickens? 

'Nooooooooooooooooooooo!' 

Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake spins the first tale in a series about two opposites who need to be friends.

Critic reviews

"Wordy fun, with laugh-out-loud dialogue [...] this book defies age grouping." (New York Times Book Review)

"Clear themes of tolerance, friendship, and understanding drive the story in a way that children will respond to." (School Library Journal)

"A delightful, witty tale [...] Middle grade readers will be enthralled by the funny, precise portrait of two distinct personalities coming together in an unlikely but durable bond of friendship." (Midwest Book Review)
