The Great Fuzz Frenzy

When Violet, an innocent dog, drops her tennis ball down a praire dog hole, she unknowingly starts a hilarious chain of events.

The startled prairie dogs look at the tennis ball with great trepidation - everyone that is, except Pip Squeak who is delighted with the ball's fuzziness. Without hesitation, he plucks some fuzz from the ball and adorns his head with the stuff. And so begins "The Great Fuzz Frenzy", each praire dog clamoring to grab some fuzz of their own, and all of them finding creative ways to wear it.

The only one unhappy with this chain of events is the bully Big Bark, who eventually steals all of the fuzz and proclaims himself to be "King of the Fuzz!" Unfortunately for Big Bark, his newly acquired fuzz attracts the attention of an eagle who swoops down and carries him away.

With laugh inducing text and illustrations, this one has become a favorite of ours!
