After reading all the old Sugar Creek Gang books, a new group of kids decide to re-form the old gang. It's not long before the adventures begin! Les finds a possum caught in a trap while walking in a local forest preserve. The gang's suspicions are raised. After eating at a local dinner that serves a popular possum stew, he and his new friends set out to discover where all these possums are coming from.
After reading and loving the original Sugar Creek Gang books, I wasn't sure what to expect. Although these are set many years later, they are just as good. The adventures are just as wild and the message is just as clear. Possum stew? Hmm. I would try it, lol. Very well done!!!
