Pogo Possum #2
“The Skinny-Dipping Mouse”
In "The Skinny-Dipping Mouse," Pogo’s quiet day is upended when Albert fakes illness to steal a freshly baked cake, only to have Howland and Churchy dive in and devour most of it—leading to a chaotic, flour-dusted battle over the last crumbs. Written and illustrated by Walt Kelly, this 1950 Dell classic captures the whimsy and mischief of the swamp with its signature charm, all on a cover by Kelly himself.
