Woodchuck sculptor Chuck and Scooter Possum, a painter, prepare for the Best of the Forest art contest. However, green-eyed jealousy and self-doubt creep in for Chuck. Eight short, episodic chapters, each creating a separate but connected scene, help newly independent readers with stopping and starting points. Numerous earth-toned watercolor and pencil illustrations accentuate the characters' emotions.
