Antwan is one sly coyote.  He lives in the hills of Beverly Hills and has the best food--straight from the cans of stars.  He doesn’t understand dogs, though.  Why on Earth would they want to live with humans?  It’s one thing to eat their garbage, but live with them?  Antwan wants to understand, so when he meets Buddy, a famous movie dog, he convinces Buddy they should trade places for awhile.  Things certainly heat up when there’s a coyote in the house.  (Wendy Baker, Hamilton Elementary School Library, Hamilton, MI)
