With its distinctive collage art style, this book follows squirrels and their daily activities: climbing, storing seeds, making homes in tree holes - maybe even flying! Discover squirrels of different kinds and colors as they scamper, eat, and - finally - sleep. Gorgeous illustrations and a lyrical text are combined in another winning title from this star studded author illustrator pair.
