"Coyotes in the falling snow / are singing all the songs they know- / the good old-fashioned favorites / and all the big coyote hits." In this collection of twenty-two humorous and thoughtful poems about forest-dwelling creatures, a toad gets a nasty surprise in his lunch, a badger writes a love poem, and an opossum dreams of its marsupial cousins in Australia. The rhyming verse is written from the perspectives of humans, an omniscient narrator, and the animals themselves. Full-color watercolor paintings.
