Jed the squirrel escapes a hawk (using an "ancient squirrel defensive martial art") and so begins his journey home. Meanwhile, his best friends Chai and TsTs set off to find him. The three make it safely home only to face their biggest challenge: convincing their conservative community to relocate before humans destroy their homes. Part satire, part environmental fable, and all playful, energetic hilarity.
