Kayla | 25 comments My grandma used to have a book at her house - I would have read it in the early to mid-90s. It was about a brown weasel looking thing...he had dark brown spots on him. There was something about an egg - I'm wondering if it was an Easter egg - he was taking it...

This is a long shot, but I couldn't find it when we cleaned out my grandma's house, and I would love to just see it one more time! :)

Anything about the cover?

Kayla | 25 comments The illustrations were colorful- not realistic/ very cartoonish. I think he was on the cover. (I know I don't have much to go on - which drives me nuts!)

Adele | 1438 comments I have no idea if this is your book, but your description brought back this intense memory of a book from my own childhood about something that I think was an otter and they actually made a big pink egg - like out of reeds or something. Do you think this could be the same book?

Adele | 1438 comments OMG - this is what I was thinking of: How Fletcher Was Hatched by Wende Devlin
A beaver and an otter put a dog in an egg. He does have brown spots though . . .

Kayla | 25 comments Yes!! Adele that is it - not about a weasel after all - it was otters!! It's called How Fletcher Hatched. I just watched it on YouTube, and that was it!! The otters make a pink egg and put the dog in it...I'll have to order myself a copy! Thank you everyone that helped!!!
