Shy squirrel Edmond lives in a tree trunk making jam and pompoms. Owl George lives above Edmond; Harry the bear lives below. When Harry throws a party, George encourages Edmond to venture out of his house, and Edmond discovers there's more than just jam and pompoms that suits him. Bright, retro-style illustrations give Edmond an energetic air in this odd French import.
