Description

Unconditional kindness is the important thing on this National Book Award Finalist from the creator of The Wainscott Weasel about nontraditional families, adoption, love—and just a little peace and quiet.

Margaret is a mean, cranky human toddler from a circle of relatives of nine. She is the sort of pain that her beleaguered parents chuck her out, and she’s on her own, grousing and grumping until two caring woodchucks, Phoebe and Fred, take Margaret in as their own. But regardless of their love, Margaret continues to wreak havoc with her loud, destructive ways, ruining the burrow and shrieking nonstop. Soon the woodchucks are as beleaguered as Margaret’s human parents were, but because love is more powerful than temper tantrums, they’re made up our minds to make it work. So they enlist just a little unconventional assist, and with the guidance of a snake, bats, and a skunk, their feral little human just might realize there’s more to life than being mean.
