When in Doubt, Play Dead

Om boken

This adorable book of pocket wisdom with 70 watercolor illustrations offers surprising insight from a delightfully unexpected source: the opossum.

The opossum-shy, awkward, resourceful, and deeply misunderstood yet thoroughly relatable-offers a model for seeing the world-and oneself-in an entirely fresh way.

Written and illustrated by Ally Burguieres, a wildlife rehabber and creator of popular Instagram account @ItsMeSesame who spends her days caring for opossums and learning from them, this book offers hope, inspiration, and encouragement to embrace life's weird, wild, and wonderful moments.

Learn to live your life the opossum way with advice including:

• A bit of risk is part of life. Cross that street, but ALWAYS look both ways beforehand.
• Smile! Unless someone tells you to, in which case you are well within your rights to scream.
• And more
