These masked beauties of the woods, who also often choose to live in towns, are natives of the Americas. While they may well build their dens in tree holes, they may also choose a spot less desirable to humans—such as someone’s attic! Mother raccoon takes good care of her cute little babies, which are born blind and deaf. She nurses them and quite soon teaches them to climb trees (or houses) and how to search for food. Readers will see how the cubs learn to choose their meals—from fish and bugs to Fido’s food and the seeds in a bird feeder—and how they eventually learn to live on their own. The gorgeous pictures of adorable raccoon cubs are sure to delight emergent readers.

The word raccoon is drawn from the Native American Algonquian language. Their term arakun roughly translates to “he who scratches with his hands.” Anyone who has found a raccoon rummaging around in a once securely closed trash container can attest to how skillful raccoons are with their front paws. In fact, they have four times as many sensory receptors in their forepaw skin as they do in their hindpaws, a ratio similar to that of human hands and feet. Samuel Zeveloff explores this trait and much more in his accessible natural history of raccoons. Written with the general reader in mind, Raccoons presents detailed information on raccoon evolution, physical characteristics, social behavior, habitats, food habits, reproduction, and conservation, as well as their relationship with humans and many other topics. The section on distribution and subspecies focuses on the raccoon’s current range expansion, and the material on their cultural significance demonstrates this mammal’s unique status in different North American cultures.
