Raccoons are called "nature's bandits" for some very good reasons. The black mask over their eyes and their talent at stealing food are just two. In this book, readers will learn much more about raccoons, such as how they survive the winter and how they take care of their young.
A raccoon forages for food at night and at dawn returns to its home in a strong, old tree, which safely shelters the raccoon through wild winds and ferocious rain so that it can go out searching for food again.
