| Summary | "Striped Coat, the Skunk" by Joseph Wharton Lippincott is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows the life of a skunk, affectionately named Striped Coat, and delves into his adventures and experiences in the woods, showcasing his interactions with other animals as well as the challenges he faces in a world where humans often do not understand his true nature. The storyline focuses on Striped Coat's journey from his early days with his mother, through his survival instincts and encounters with both wildlife and humans, to his eventual growth as a mature skunk. Throughout his adventures, he demonstrates intelligence, charm, and an understanding of his role in nature, particularly his impact on the ecosystem as a predator of pests like mice and beetles. The narrative beautifully illustrates themes of coexistence, the importance of every creature in the environment, and the misconceptions surrounding skunks, ultimately portraying Striped Coat as a misunderstood yet vital member of his woodland community.
