     The discoveries of friendship with the help of Mischief.

The debate has gone on for years about which pet/animal is smarter, the cat or dog.  Recent statistics relating to the subject states that a dog has more neurons in its brain than does a cat, hence the dog is the smarter of the two.  The same statistics state that the raccoon has even more neurons, hence smarter than a dog.

There goes the premise of my book titled Mischief, who is a bright, energetic, pet raccoon.  This is a story for young adults on the level of a twelve year old, filled with youthful discovery for a young girl from the city, the forming of friendships, dealing with family dynamics, and the world surrounding things of nature.

Best wishes with 'Mischief'...

Ron, a raccoon can and has been trained as a pet. They are clever critters. They have been known to pick the locks on their cages, and the antics in my book are true to the animal's character.

I didn't find a story to read here. Just a pitch for this book, which I guess is a story like most books.

It would be nice if you had written a story about Mischief's antics. I don't think it would've been giving away your book, but it certainly would have been delightful to read.

Once while visiting my parents at their lake home in northern Wisconsin, I encountered a girl who at the time was 16, I believe. At her family's farm nearby, she had all kinds of wild critters, some of which were pets.

I don't believe the raccoons have ever been domesticated like dogs and cats. That is a big difference.
