Hello, everyone! Our book today is A Possum’s Tail by Gabby Dawnay and Alex Barrow, a cute and silly story about a boy, his toy dog, and some adventurous possums!

Samuel Drew never goes anywhere with his toy dog. He treks all over London, he on feet and his dog on wheels. One day, he finds himself at the zoo, looking at a family of possums. He watches them a moment, then turns to leave – not realizing that the baby possums have tagged along! What follows is a funny adventure past confused onlookers on the busy streets of London.

What a fun story! This was one of those books with no message or lesson: just pure ridiculous fun. The illustrations are gorgeous, with fantastic details that young readers will find something new in each time. The story is fun to read and a good length for baby bookworms, and JJ liked it a lot. Baby Bookworm approved!
