What would you do if you heard something in the middle of the night?
Could it be a mouse, rat or even a raccoon?
Reggie D. Raccoon has to find a new food source quick. His food source, the trash cans by a suburban house, have disappeared when the “trash makers” left the suburban home. Luckily, a new “trash maker” moved in. But this new human doesn’t appreciate Reggie’s scavenging at night.
The noise keeps Preston, the new owner of the house, from being able to continue his work on his inventions. His neat and orderly life keeps being interrupted, and Preston doesn’t know what to do. He needs to finish his invention in time for a contest deadline. With the ruckus each night interrupting his concentration, will Preston be able to finish in time? Or will Preston find an unlikely ally in his new, stripped, tailed friend?
