Paul Rátz de Tagyos makes his drawings in New Rochelle, New York. His last book was Rooster Can't Cock-A-Doodle-Doo, a drama. He has written and illustrated two coney (rabbit) books and is now drawing pictures for a book about "a lovely, plump cockroach named Maybelle," another drama. He has no raccoons, rabbits, or roaches. And he's thankful.

Rory is scared of being away from home for the first time, especially when his sleeping bag is so comfortable . . . but he doesn't want his parents treating him like a baby kit anymore. He'll get to stay up until morning if he sleeps over at his cousins' house. It could even help Rory conquer his biggest fear: starting Remarkable Raccoon Suburban School, which means nights away from his folks. Is Rory ready to show everyone—including his parents—that he's ready to go anywhere?
