This is a 1946 edition of a book originally published in 1918. When Jimmy Skunk curls up to take a nap in an old barrel, the imp of mischief gets the better of Peter Rabbit. Tons of trouble plague the long-eared prankster after he decides it'd be great fun to see the barrel (with Jimmy inside) roll down from its resting point high on a hill. Reddy Fox gets the blame for Jimmy's wild ride; Peter gets his comeuppance for playing nasty tricks; and before the day is out, Jimmy Skunk and Unc' Billy Possum go egg-hunting and wind up in a pretty pickle in Farmer Brown's henhouse. Thornton Waldo Burgess (1874-1965) was an American conservationist and author of children's stories. By the time he retired, he had written more than 170 books and 15,000 stories for his daily newspaper column. Hardcover, good condition. 189 pages, 12mo.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Grosset \u0026 Dunlap, Publishers, New York","offers":[{"title":"The Adventures of Jimmy Skunk | illustrated by Harrison Cady Thornton W.
