My sister tamed a squirrel with peanuts until it ate out of her hand… So begins a tongue-in-cheek tale of taming gone wrong. When a genius squirrel launches a daring winter storage plan, big sister ends up high in the oak tree with a new furry family. But what will happen when her nuts run out? It's little sister to the rescue! In her own ingenious way.
Written by Catherine Austen and illustrated by Sean Cassidy, The Squirrels Stole my Sister is for animal lovers and little siblings everywhere.
