(3) K-3 Illustrated by Howard Fine. "Moonlight, / June night, / Just-right-for-raccoon night." Indeed, it's the ideal time for a raccoon family to hunt for dinner. Unfortunately, the humans have closed the garbage-can lids too tightly, and the raccoons have a terrible time trying to open them. The taut rhyming text will prove fun to read aloud, and the blue-tinted images of the raccoon family foraging at night perfectly capture the mischievous mood.
