Who's Been Here? A Tale in Tracks
In this fun-filled and informative book, we take a winter walk with rambunctious golden retriever Willy. Of course he leaves his paw prints in the snow. But there are other tracks, too, and none of them matches his. One by one, we find out what animal they belong to: a cat, a gull, a raccoon, a snowshoe hare, a bear, a moose, and -- uh oh! -- a skunk!
