Amazon Books list this as still being in print.  I must agree that the
weasels do look a lot like ferts.  I'm looking forward to when my baby is
old enough to listen to this types of books.  The ferrets just utterly
fascinate him.
 
Another 'weasel' book that you'll find in the children's book section is
_Crow and Weasel_ by Barry Lopez.  Again, the weasel illustrations look
very ferret like.  (Amazon lists this as still in print as well.)
