Flying Squirrel at Acorn Place

32 pp. | Soundprints | September, 1998 | Trade ISBN 1-56899-669-1 $$15.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kristin Kest. Without anthropomorphizing, this story offers a glimpse into the life of Flying Squirrel as he spends the night hunting for a new nest site, evading predators, and gathering nuts to store for the winter. The realistic paintings use a rich, earth-toned palette, finding surprising opportunities for brighter reds, blues, and greens despite the nighttime setting. An endnote supplies some additional information. Glos.
