Abigail Skunk teaches her kits many lessons. In this story, they learn to help others, to keep clean, to practice safety, and to care for family. Most of all, the little skunks learn that being polite and courteous helps them get along with other animals.
Abigail Skunk's Lessons for her Kits is the first in the Woodland Tales - which is a series of stories about animals that live in the forest and coastal areas of British Columbia, Canada. The Woodland Tales were written as a dedication project for Marian's granddaughter when she attended Kindergarten.
