This delightful read-aloud story presents CARL, an inquisitive chipmunk, as he uses his reading skills and thoughtful planning to take care of a problem outside of the Museum. Colorful illustrations by noted landscape and wildlife artist, John Potter, visually engage young readers. This series continues to be a family favorite with the newest book, Carl and the Shadow Hill Gang. The stories about CARL and his friends are set inside and around the National Museum of Wildlife Art. Distinguished by its mission and its stunning location on a butte over-looking the National Elk Refuge north of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and amid real wildlife habitat, the National Museum of Wildlife Art of the United States is unique among American art museums.
