Great book

This is a great book for beginner chapter readers. IT is also good for children with Visual problems for the words are large enough and the Book has enough space between sentences which is a bonus.

an old friend returns

When I was a child growing up in California in the sixties (not always a pleasant experience, with all the hippies and dope floating around) "Little Raccoon and the Outside World" was one of my favorite books. I still have a copy somewhere but I haven't been able to find it; maybe I threw it away by mistake. Until recently I did not know that "Little Raccoon" was a series; I saw a copy of "Little Raccoon and No Problem At All" at a thrift store but didn't buy it. Now I hope Little Raccoon and I can renew our friendship. Sure, it's children's literature, but I'll take Little Raccoon over Harry Potter any day.

Loved it!

I loved this book! It is a captivating book. There are three chapters, almost 3 seperate books for a young reader. Little raccoon is such a great character - always getting into trouble or somehow finding trouble. It is actually a chapter book that young children can read to themselves - my copy is 64 pages. I happened to read a chapter a night to my 7 year old at bedtime; but she easily could have read it on her own.
