Description:

“As a baby, Pumpkin the Raccoon was abandoned by her parents after falling out of a tree and breaking her leg. Taken in by a family with two rescue dogs, Toffee and Oreo, Pumpkin gained a new set of “parents” and a life of luxury in the Bahamas. Pumpkin: The Raccoon Who Thought She Was a Dog is a sweet, unique look at an adorable household pet, captured in gorgeous, never-before-seen photographs in luxurious settings. Pumpkin’s message is that friendship and love can be found in the most unlikely of companions. With a lot of personality, and a little bit of mischief, Pumpkin will capture hearts all around the world.”– Amazon.com

Why I recommend it:

YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter are now very much part of our lives. Sometimes we all go on just to get away from our own lives. I followed Pumpkin the Raccoon on Instagram, up until October 2019 when she passed away. I was very excited to see a book about her on our shelves, it was nice to see the funny pictures again and to hear about her life story through the words of her mother/ owner. I had to recommend this fun book during May National Pet Month because pets come in all shapes and sizes and we love them.
