When in Doubt, Play Dead: Life Advice from an Unexpected Source

Featuring 70 watercolor illustrations, this totally adorable gift of a book offers wisdom and insight from a delightfully unexpected source: the opossum.

Learn to live your life the opossum way with advice including the following.

• The difference between a weed and a flower is often a matter of taste.
• It’s nobody’s business what’s in your pouch. Unless you’ve got snacks in there. In which case, you should share.
• A bit of risk is part of life. Cross that street, but ALWAYS look both ways beforehand.
• Smile! Unless someone tells you to, in which case you are well within your rights to scream.
• And more.
