by Betty Vanderwielen (Author), Lucy Davis
Climbing the tree to rescue the orphaned baby raccoons was just the beginning.
From eye dropper to bottle feedings, from wiggling worms to pinching crayfish, from cage building to camping trips to final release-Lance's summer has never been so busy, or so bodaciously awesome. He could almost call it a perfect summer.
Except for the situation with his mom.
His mom who is thinking of adopting a human baby-a baby with Down syndrome.
