Groundhog Gets a Say

CRITICS HAVE SAID

Swallow presents quite a bit of information about groundhogs in an entertaining story…Brunkus’ humorous, colorful illustrations portray the portly braggart and his companions with wry, apt expressions on their faces, conveying their annoyance, and, despite themselves, their curiosity. –Booklist
