Book 1

Skunk and Badger

by Amy Timberlake

Published 3 September 2020
 

A classic tale about an extraordinary and
unlikely animal friendship. For fans of Paddington Bear
and Wallace and Gromit. From
Newbery Honor Author, Amy Timberlake and multi-award winning illustrator,
Jon Klassen comes a beautiful tale of friendship for readers
aged 7+.

Meet Skunk and Badger.

The
first time Badger saw Skunk, he thought, 'puny'
and shut the front door.

There was simply too much
slick in this Skunk's stripe. Too much puff in his tail.

Also,
there'd been that grin, and the way he'd
stuck out his paw as if he had been looking forward to meeting Badger.


Badger knew what to make of that.

He
shut the door before the fellow got any ideas . . .

But
Skunk is Badger's new roommate, and there is nothing Badger can do
about it.

When Skunk bursts into Badger's life, everything
Badger knows is upended. Tails are flipped. The wrong animal is
sprayed.

And why-oh-why are there so many chickens?




Skunk and Badger is a beautiful reminder that sometimes
opposites are destined to be the best of friends.
A book
you'll want to read again and again, beautifully illustrated
throughout by Jon Klassen.

Book 2

Egg Marks the Spot

by Amy Timberlake

Published 2 September 2021
 


The reluctant odd couple from the highly-acclaimed Skunk
and Badger are back in this heartfelt, funny adventure!

Buried in the heart of every animal is a secret treasure.
Badger's is the Spider Eye Agate, stolen years ago by his crafty
and treasure-trade-dealing cousin, Fisher. Skunk's is Sundays with
the New Yak Times Book Review.
When Mr. G. Hedgehog threatens to take the Book Review as
soon as it thumps on the doorstep, Skunk decides an adventure
('X Marks the Spot!') will solve both their problems. Badger
agrees, and together they set off for his favorite campsite on Endless
Lake. But all is not as it seems at Campsite #5. Harrumphs
in the night. Unexpected friends.

Then Fisher appears,
and Badger knows something is up. Something involving secrets,
betrayals, and lies!


And a luminous, late-Jurassic prize.




Caldecott medalist Jon Klassen and Newbery Honor author
Amy Timberlake take readers on a second adventure in
the new series reviewers have called an instant classic.
It's Wallace and Grommit meets Winnie the Pooh,
the ideal read for fans of Frog and Toad and Wind
in the Willows.

The jacketed hardback includes full-colour plates and additional
black-and-white illustrations.
