Twitch the Squirrel enjoys
living outside until he’s realized that he’s eaten up all of the food he’s
stored for the winter and he’s very cold. So he decides to pay his
friend Cuddles the dog a visit, whose human family is having a holiday
celebration. When Squirrel enters the house he creates lots of chaos and
no one notices one of the little boys leaving the house. When the young
boy gets stranded in the snow it is up to Squirrel and Cuddles to save
him.
This story is narrated by
Squirrel, giving the reader an animal’s humorous perspective on things.
This book is a follow-up to Vande’s 8 Class Pets + 1 Squirrel ÷ 1 Dog =
Chaos, but is able to be read as a stand-alone. This is a fun,
humorous read which my eight- year-old son enjoyed very much.
EL (K-3) – ADVISABLE.
