A funny and poignant picture book about working parents, babysitters, love, and the power of music by the #1 New York Times bestselling artist of the She Persisted series.

Two raccoons live at the bottom of a tree where a mama bird and her family of chicks move in. Rudy the raccoon is not impressed at all—not by Mama Bird, not by her chicks, and certainly not by the singing school she starts in the hollow of the tree. But when Mama Bird's work at the singing school sends her on a business trip to another forest, Rudy must step up and care for the chicks. When he does, he learns a thing or two about love . . . and the power of music. 

From the #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator of the She Persisted series, this gorgeously illustrated book is a must-read for all kids who spend time with babysitters while their parents are away.
