A polecat’s surprising talent

Jill Esbaum introduces the polecat through a playful mix of animal facts and a small mystery: what is its unusual superpower? The description highlights two details that help set the animal apart from common assumptions—it is usually active at night, and it is not a baby skunk. The polecat eventually demonstrates its talent to the reader and a nervous porcupine, while the book builds familiarity with the animal first. A useful pick for pairing an engaging animal story with an introduction to polecats.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in animals and animal facts
  • Young readers who enjoy humorous picture books with a guessing-game element

Book overview

A factual (and funny) introduction to the polecat and its awesome, action-packed superpower, from the team that brought you Parrotfish Has a Superpower.

The polecat has a super cool superpower you'd probably never guess. Why? Well, first, he's usually only awake when the rest of us are sleeping! Second, he is NOT a baby skunk, despite what everyone says, so he can do more than spray his predators. And third, his superpower isn't something he normally shows to friends. But today he's happy to show you (and one nervous porcupine) what it is! After we get to know him of course.

Will you be able to guess the superpower? Read this book to find out!
