Raccoon Up High

Text by Artem Golikov, illustrated by Elena Repetur

Five illustrated short stories about a naughty but charming little raccoon, his wise older sister and their loving (as well as bewildered) parents.

Meet a little raccoon! He likes to be a loud and powerful turbine, rule the seas as a Water Sprite when taking a bath, pretend to be a secret agent while eating, climb up high to meet firefighters, and he doesn’t like to sleep alone in the dark. Fortunately, the little raccoon has a calm and wise older sister. She knows how to deal with her baby brother and doesn’t let their parents get mad.
