Delightful Book

This is a delightful read. Anyone who has raccoons in their lives (or garbage cans) will gain a greater appreciation (and possible love) for these critters through Dorcas MacClintock's right-to-the-heart writing. I loved the drawings, some made me laugh as raccoon antics were masterfully illustrated. This book is a treasure...

Astonishingly detailed

This book provides more detailed information about raccoons than any other I have read. MacClintock seems to know an astonishing amount about these wonderful creatures, and she shares her knowledge in prose that is clear and insightful. My only regret is that the book offers drawings rather than photographs; the drawings are good, but photos would have made this book perfect.
