Rock Paper Incisors by Amy Timberlake illustrated by Jon Klassen

 3rd in a series

Skunk and Badger, two "bachelors", have adjusted to being roommates. Skunk creates delicious meals while Badger focuses on "important rock work". Then two orphan rats are thrusted upon them. Chaos ensues. How will Badger finish his article for Rock Hound Weekly when the rats demand constant attention? Then a bear choose to hibernate in front of their door. . . giving birth to three cubs.  Chickens to the rescue! 

Ms. Timberlake creates likable, believable charaters in the rats. They reminded me of  rambunctious, curious preschoolers. 😀 

Warning/considerations: old earth worldview, evolution (all life came from algae, bacteria to abundant life-Cambrian Explosion)
