Mother Possum taught Joe how to save himself from their enemies by playing dead. It was a crucial trick for a possum. When they were practicing, Joe wasn't able to hold his laugh, his scream, his giggle, and his wiggle. But, a dead possum not laugh, scream, giggle, or even wiggle!

While Joe's friends were entertained to watch Joe practicing, Mother Possum was worried, wondering how Joe would handle a real dangerous situation. Meanwhile, a bear lurked as they practiced outdoor.

Sabio and Mom really enjoy reading this book and the 2 other books by Keizo Kasza that sabioandmom has. The story is funny and warm, also not superficial. The illustrations are classic so they are very familiar and easy to enjoy.

Ibu Possum mengajari Joe cara menyelamatkan dirinya dari musuh dengan berpura-pura mati. Itu adalah trik krusial bagi seekor possum. Saat mereka berlatih, Joe tidak mampu menahan tawa, teriakannya, tawa cekikikannya, dan goyangannya. Tapi, posum mati tidak tertawa, berteriak, cekikikan, atau bahkan menggoyangkan badan!

Sementara teman-teman Joe terhibur melihat Joe berlatih, Ibu Possum khawatir dan bertanya-tanya bagaimana Joe akan menangani situasi berbahaya yang sebenarnya. Sementara itu, seekor beruang mengintai saat mereka berlatih di luar rumah.

Sabio dan Mama sangat menikmati membaca buku ini dan 2 buku karya Keizo Kasza lainnya yang sabioandmom miliki. Ceritanya lucu dan hangat, tapi juga tidak dangkal. Ilustrasinya klasik sehingga sangat familiar dan mudah dinikmati.
