No Fooling





Cork and Fuzz are back for another sweet, funny, and relatable friendship story in this successful easy-to-read series.

Cork is a muskrat who likes small, safe adventures. Fuzz is a possum who likes big, exciting adventures. Fuzz convinces Cork to go with him on a snowy exploration, but Cork is scared of the big animals they might encounter. When Fuzz pretends he has seen a dangerous animal, he only makes Cork more scared. Then, like the Boy Who Cried Wolf, Fuzz really does run into a big animal—a puppy! Both friends discover how brave they really are, and learn when it is and isn’t okay to fool someone you care about.

Praise for No Fooling

"[A] droll take on the evergreen theme of unlikely friendships...Readers will hope for sequels."

"Chaconas's text and characterizations hearken back ... [to] the measured dialogue and sweet illogic of Arnold Lobel's Frog and Toad. This laugh-out-loud treat never falls short."
