Imagine my jubilant expression when I rediscovered one of my most memorable children's books I read when I was a kid.

I loved this book. It was sheer chaos. A POSSUM goes to school, guys, okay? It gets in the paint, it gets everywhere, there's a lot of slapstick elements. The possum ruins every damn thing in that school. I liked the repetition in it, they chase him through all the separate rooms, and the book just had a lot of movement to it.

I loved the illustrations the most. They were so jam-packed and there was so much detail in the possum's destruction.

A hidden gem. ( )
