Squirrel’s Family Tree by Beth Ferry

April 3, 2019 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Raven’s Family Tree…. I mean Squirrel’s Family Tree is really a 4.5 rating as it is not my OMG FAVORITE book ever, but it is a book with some strong pieces to it. The story is about how squirrels and oak trees depend on each other. If the oak tree did not grow, the squirrel would not have a home or acorns to eat. And since the squirrels bury the acorns, and forget where most of them are stashed, oak trees can grow from these caches.

Sink your chompers into this nutty tail Humorous Stories

Honestly, I had great hopes for this newest creation by Mo Willems (as I am a little nuts about squirrels). But I Lost My Tooth has too much in the way of shenanigans and not enough bite in the facts about the subject matter area.
