But Skunk is Badger’s new roommate, and there is nothing Badger can do about it. When Skunk plows into Badger’s life, everything Badger knows is upended. Tails are flipped. The wrong animal is sprayed. And why are there so many chickens? This animal odd-couple story will win your heart and have you reading the story again and laughing out loud.
