Climb and pounce like a raccoon with this adorable, STEM nonfiction picture book, part of a series that encourages very young readers to learn--through gentle interactivity and play--about the animals who share their world

Crawl, cling climb! You may have seen a raccoon scurry up a tree or across the road just before dark. Did you know that raccoons stay up at night playing, hunting, and eating when you go to sleep? From birth to first stripes and beyond, discover all that goes into being a raccoon in this charming picture book, the second in the Meet Your World series.

This playful and informative series invites you to take a closer look at the amazing animals that live right alongside you in rural, suburban, and urban landscapes across North America. In each book, words and art inspire you to act out animal actions that are not so different from your own habits. And robust backmatter offers even more facts and fun. From the animals' families and foods to their environments and behaviors, let's meet your world!

"Truly a perfect blend of education and fun with the addition of adorable illustrations." --SLJ

"Exceptionally adorable . . . Deftly connects natural human children's activities to raccoon behaviors." --Kirkus
