Author Description

He only wanted to help a poor raccoon with a jar stuck on his head… Six-year-old Finn Thomas thought his biggest problem was figuring out why Daddy suddenly moved out. Then a talking raccoon and his fox friend showed up at his window one night with even bigger problems: their forest is in danger. After Finn proves his worth by freeing Cecil from the evil peanut butter jar, he's recruited into their secret group—the Bandits. Their mission? Steal back a magical acorn that keeps the forest hidden from human eyes. Without it, the Peoplings will find everything. However, the thief is just a little girl who lives down the street. How did she even find something that was hidden? With an Official Bandit Mask and two unlikely new friends, Finn embarks on the weirdest, wildest night of his life. But getting the acorn back is only the beginning of Finn’s real adventure… A novella about friendship, courage, and discovering your place in a world that’s bigger and weirder than you ever imagined. This is the color illustrated special edition.
