School Library Journal - 11/01/2025 K-Gr 3—This is the tale of forest guardians Carrot Cake and Pufftail, secret warriors who protect their home. When Renard Fox moves in, he seems to cause trouble. He chases chipmunks, disturbs Agatha Owl, and pelts the squirrel with nuts, but when Carrot Cake and Pufftail overhear him plotting to steal eggs, they know they have to step in. Armed with one of the most powerful weapons they have—their words—the warriors realize that things are not always as they appear. Patton's bold artwork heightens the comedy and suspense but puts readers in mind of Aaron Blabey's lovable illustrations for "The Bad Guys" series. The expressive characters perfectly match the playful action of the story to keep readers engaged, while Gehl's twist in the story delivers a subtle moral to not judge someone prematurely because, sometimes, maybe all they need is a hug. VERDICT With a great mix of humor, action, and heart, this book packs a punch as a great choice for collections everywhere.—Jessica Clark - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
