The Tale of Fatty Coon, written by Arthur Scott Bailey, is a classic children's story about a raccoon with a big appetite and an even bigger heart. Fatty Coon's love of food and his adventurous spirit often lead him into trouble, but he always manages to find his way out with the help of his friends.

But Fatty Coon's biggest love is food. He will eat anything he can get his paws on, from berries and nuts to fish and meat.
One day, Fatty Coon's appetite gets him into trouble. He wanders into Farmer Green's cornfield and starts eating his corn. Farmer Green catches Fatty Coon and threatens to shoot him, but Fatty Coon manages to escape. Another time, Fatty Coon gets stuck in a hollow tree while trying to steal honey from a beehive.
