PS
Two mice investigate why an oak sapling is growing so far away from the nearest oak tree. Eventually they solve the mystery by observing a squirrel burying an acorn. Walsh delivers her nature lesson with a light touch; an endnote provides more information about how acorns get transported. The cut-paper collages offer a rich array of textures, patterns, and woodsy colors.
