Renowned storyteller Coleen Salley and Caldecott Honor illustrator Janet Stevens team up again, drawing on the Uncle Remus tradition and their own wild imaginations to expose a hilarious--and important!--moment in possum history.

There are some things in life that you never forget; there are memories that cling as firmly as ivy growing on an old brick wall. For author Ann Ragland, some very memorable experiences throughout her life involved a four-legged creature of the night, one that made frequent visits to her neighborhood throughout her entire life. While some of these possum encounters were not what she would consider up close and personal, others definitely were; they have roots deeply embedded in her memory bank, either because they were surrounded with happy times and loving people, or because they were very frightening and extremely challenging. Like memories of her parents, they will forever remain unfading in her heart. The docile possum causes a stir, especially when it decides to find a hidden entrance into the house and then takes the liberty of crawling under the covers of the soft, cushy bed while the inhabitants of the house are on vacation. The discovery and retrieval of the possum is just one of the childhood memories of the four-legged mammal shared with humor and nostalgia in Theres a Possum on Your Pillow.
