Sinossi
Nessuna delle cose terribili che sono accadute sarebbe necessariamente accaduta se la puzzola non avesse attirato l'attenzione su di sé sradicando le piante nel nostro giardino e rubando un mazzo di verdure. E se babbo non avesse detto al bracciante di piazzare una trappola e ucciderla. E se non fosse venuto fuori che la puzzola era una femmina con un cucciolo nascosto in una tana nelle vicinanze. E se mio fratello minore Travis non avesse sentito il cucciolo affamato piangere e non si fosse fermato a indagare.
Ma questa sfortunata serie di eventi si verificò e Travis finì per ricevere una punizione e diventare un eroe nello stesso preciso momento.

I'm a huge fan of the original Calpurnia stories, so I was leery of this spin-off for younger readers, but it is delightful.

Calpurnia Tate, Girl Vet is a new series for younger readers. This first book tells of Calpurnia and her younger brother Travis' misadventures with baby skunks. Travis has big heart when it comes to animals, but lacks common sense. Case in point, he brings the skunks to school because one is sick. M Leggi tutto
Calpurnia and her brother, Travis, have a relationship in which they care for one another and like each other, so when one gets into a scrape, the other helps them out. The plot is funny, there is great foreshadowing, no one gets hurts, and, in the end, their parents never find out what really happe Leggi tutto
Popsugar Reading Challenge 2022: a Book with the name of a board game in the title. ( Skunked! ) I enjoyed reading this book and completely understand why Travis has the heart of gold wanting to help any animal he thinks needs it. I am looking forward to reading more books of this series and learning Leggi tutto
