Description: Skunk Cunningham is an eleven year old girl in a coma. She has a loving dad, an absent mother and a brother who plays more x-box than is good for him. She also has the neighbours from hell. As the reader inches closer to the mystery surrounding the coma, Skunk's innocence becomes a beacon which enlightens and illuminates a world as comic as it is tragic.
