You think it's easy being a moose?
Think again! Even though I'm big, I'm just a baby. I love my mother and my friends. Like Dudley, the beaver, who named me. And Snow, the little wolf, who loves to play tag. His family's another matter. What really scares me is people. Mother said they're the most dangerous creatures in the forest. I certainly didn't want to meet them....
Snow and I are young, so naturally we're curious. One day we were playing tag...and ran into a schoolyard by mistake! (Okay...we didn't run -- we fell!) Right smack in the middle of all these strange animals, weird buildings, and terrifying machines. Yoweeee! Did we ever learn a lesson there....

Carol Wallace graduated from the Oklahoma College of Liberal Arts and received her master’s degree in elementary education from Southwestern Oklahoma State University. She taught second grade and wrote several award-winning books for children with her husband, Bill Wallace.
Bill Wallace (1947–2012) grew up in Oklahoma, where he and his friends rode horses, went fishing, and had campouts. His stories were inspired by these childhood adventures. Bill won nineteen children’s state awards and was awarded the Arrell Gibson Lifetime Achievement Award for Children’s Literature from the Oklahoma Center for the Book.
John Steven Gurney is the author and illustrator of the Fuzzy Baseball graphic novel series and the picture book Dinosaur Train. He has illustrated over 140 chapter books, including the A to Z Mysteries, The Adventures of the Bailey School Kids, and the Calendar Mysteries series. He studied illustration at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, and received his MFA in illustration from the Hartford Art School. He teaches illustration and design at Kutztown University. John lives in Vermont with his wife Kathie. More than forty people from his town have posed as characters for his books. He loves running and cycling, except when there’s too much snow, in which case he cross-country skis and plays racquetball.
