It’s fall in some parts of the world, and at my place, the monsoon is setting. A lot of fall posts are over my feed and I decided to go with the trend.
Fall/ autumn and squirrel are interrelated. Squirrels are active during the fall to store food for the winter. You can see they are buzzing very fast up and down. This non-fiction book about squirrels tells us about their nature, family, use of the tail and lifestyle. The watercolour illustrations in this book are so good. Each page has simple information that a young child can get to know about it. The facts were so interesting and fun, a must-read for a young wildlife enthusiast!
