Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
'Possums,' Mama says, 'are the true performers of the animal kingdom. And all the world's a stage.' Young Appleblossom, the smallest one in her family, needs to find the role that she was born to play. She may be tiny, but she's not timid, and when she accidentally falls down a chimney, she discovers that she's also daring and quite clever. She'll need to be- Inside the house are some of the monsters her mama has warned her about - the ones called dogs and people! The curious Appleblossom, her faithful possum brothers (who launch a hilarious rescue mission), and even the lonely girl in the people's house are all about to discover new, amazing things about life, love, and how to act.
A young possum strikes out on her own and winds up trapped in a human house before her brothers can rescue her.
