Racoon Reunion was such a fun kids book. The pictures are so colorful. I love how the book teaches kids about problem solving and friendships. The character building is great. This book was such an easy read. My 9 year old loved it.
I really enjoyed this story! I loved how this shows the strengths and weaknesses that each person has! And I love how it shows to conquer your fear of not fitting in with others and also showing what you know when it matters the most! I really enjoyed this story!
The artwork in this book is beautiful. I felt bad for poor Rocky, it looked like he thought he didn’t fit in with his own family but, when he had an idea on how to help them out, they al praise him and he realizes he fits in well, he was just too shy to speak up it seems. Him and his cousin Rascal hit it off and make a great team together. I chuckled at the angry chicken in the background during the egg eating contest. Such a sweet read.
This book is the cutest! The illustrations are adorable an clear. This is great to show kids that even though it can be scary meeting new family members or people, but in the end it can be just as fun.

Racoon Reunion is a fun and educational story with beautiful colorful illustrations that bring the story to life. Rocky is hesitate at first of the upcoming family reunion that he and his family are invited to..but feeling a bit anxious of not knowing anyone. Grandma Rigby is already to have fun with the family with games…but Rocky is holding back and unsure. In the end Rocky learns all about friendship and teamwork with his cousin in game playing…..excited for the next adventure to come….
This is a great children’s book…for ages 5-9 …anyone can enjoy this from the young to the young at heart reading to the little ones. I love how this story teaches that it is ok to be a little anxious but also opening up to discover everything will be ok…
This is a cute story about Rocky the Raccoon and his adventures at his family reunion. At first, he’s apprehensive to go because he doesn’t know anyone there and everything happens so fast and he doesn’t know how to do some of the things. But he becomes an integral part of helping everyone out at the end and ends up making friends with his cousin Rascal. It’s a great story to teach your littles about trying new things even though they may be scared. I really loved the illustrations and thought that the life-lessons were great.

Raccoon Reunion by Terri Sabol is a cute children’s story with a bit of journey of discovery, problem solving, sharing, teamwork, cooperation, family, overcoming apprehension, and friendship. The fun story is accompanied by some wonderful, bright, and interesting illustrations which really help to bring everything to life. Rocky the Raccoon and his family are invited to the family reunion being held at Grandma Rigby’s place out in the country. He doesn’t want to go. But he doesn’t really have a choice. When they arrive, there are so many family members there and so many names to remember. Rocky really doesn’t like the food, or the games that are played. He is having the worst time. But what happens when the family decides to go dumpster diving? And will Rocky finally have some fun? As expected from Ms. Sabol, this is quite a delightful children’s adventure.

Raccoon Reunion captivates and entertains young minds and had my grandson’s full attention. I like that they learn from Terri’s stories opening them up to immeasurable possibilities. This is a delightful picture book that tells the tale of one raccoon who is unsure of his outing and overcomes his fear of the unknown and the value of helping others. This cute story becomes even more dimensional with the beautiful illustrations by Pei Jen. A great addition to a school library, library, or in the family home.
“Raccoon Reunion” by Terri Sabol is a delightful and engaging story that follows Rocky, a curious and nervous raccoon, as he embarks on his first family reunion. As a city-raised raccoon, Rocky has never met his relatives who live outside the city, and he’s unsure of what to expect. But with the help of his new friends and a willingness to learn, Rocky discovers his strengths and finds a sense of belonging.
The story is beautifully written, with vivid descriptions of the forest and its inhabitants. Sabol’s use of language is easy to follow, making it accessible to readers of all ages. The characters are well-developed and relatable, with Rocky’s emotions and thoughts expertly conveyed through his dialogue and actions.
A lovely story that reminds me a little of country moune and city mouse.It’s a really cute story that will take you back to your memories of family reunions. Mine were always nuts. The story has bright and colorful illustrations that are sure to grab a child’s attention. The story is entertaining and family friendly. My grandson and I laughed and chuckled through it. He asked questions which brought up memories of family that had passed. It’s a lovely book that we’ll be adding to our library. I still have 4 more grandchildren to share it with. This is my favorite childrens book this year.

Terri Sabol is an accomplished children’s book author, renowned for her heartwarming and entertaining stories featuring the real-life adventures of her two beloved rescue kittens, Oscar and Emmy. Born and raised in Texas, Terri developed a love of writing and storytelling at a young age, and always dreamed of one day becoming an author. Thinking that was out of reach, she focused on her other dream… teaching.
After graduating from college with a Masters degree in education, Terri worked as an early childhood teacher, and it was during this time that her passion for picture books truly blossomed. She was inspired by the joy and wonder that children experienced when reading and listening to stories, and it was this love for inspiring young minds that led her to create her own series of children’s books.
Terri’s debut book, “Oscar and Emmy Get Rescued”, was published in 2016, and told the heartwarming story of how she came to adopt her two kittens from the animal shelter where she volunteered. The book was an instant hit with children and parents alike, and it quickly became clear that there was a demand for more stories featuring Oscar and Emmy and to help educate children on the importance being involved in pet care.
Over the years, Terri has continued to write new books in the series, each one capturing the unique personalities and quirks of her two adventurous cats. Her books not only entertain children, but also promote the values of compassion and kindness towards animals, as well as the importance of rescue and adoption.
In addition to her Oscar and Emmy series, Terri has also written several other books showing off her writing skills, including “Green With Envy” and “Kneading a Winning Idea”.
When she’s not writing, Terri can be found spending time with her two rescue kitties, Oscar and Emmy. She also loves travelling and exploring new places and visiting old favorites, all the while taking inspiration for her next book. Through her stories, Terri hopes to inspire children to explore the world around them, to embrace their imaginations, to never give up on their goals, and to always be kind and compassionate towards others, especially animals.
