Woodchuck
OntOnt
OntOnt,
a very perspicacious (having
keen judgment or
understanding; acutely perceptive)
groundhog, dreams of faraway places while living a mischievous life
close to nature, good friends and family. First in the series, this
tale begins the adventures of his close-knit Blue Ridge Mountain
community. OntOnt has wanderlust and knows he is blessed by a Great
Universal Spirit that tells him life's secrets, including how to talk
to vegetables.
OntOnt's
family consists
of two
younger sisters - Dibble Do and Yummie - his little, fat-stomach
brother Milton Baby who cries when OntOnt teases him, and their
religious grandmother, Kimmama, who loves entertaining their
extraordinary guests and threatens to use a birch switch if anyone
misbehaves.
Born
on Groundhog's Day
circa 1928,
OntOnt is perhaps twelve, yet his keen knowledge of life causes him to
ponder many mysteries and play tricks on others to illuminate life's
mysteries. Part of OntOnt's good humor comes from assurances given him
by his guardian angel; that he has a wonderful personality and is
destined for greatness. OntOnt calls Timber Lilly his girlfriend, and
loves the wise counsel of her one-legged moonshiner father, Crip.
