Tale of Fatty Coon
Fatty Coon lives in the swamp, and Fatty Coon has one weakness: butter. Not berries, not grubs, not the usual things a raccoon might crave, but butter, smooth and yellow, stolen from the dairy shelf or the Farmer's spring house. Arthur Scott Bailey builds a whole charming world around this simple appetite, filling Pleasant Valley with critters who have their own peculiarities and their own ways of getting into delightful trouble. Fatty's nocturnal adventures sparkle with the gentle humor of old-fashioned storytelling, he schemes, he sneaks, he gets caught, and somehow the consequences never quite stick. The tale moves at a picture book's pace, with chapters that breathe easily, leaving room for laughter and the satisfaction of a rascal who always lands on his paws. This is a story for the youngest listeners, the ones who love animal friends and the particular pleasure of watching a scamp outwit the world. It belongs to that sweet category of books that work beautifully as bedtime reading or quiet afternoon treats.
