A lively, humorous counting book featuring a kid trying to keep up with a load of sassy squirrels. Some days it seems like there are squirrels everywhere! When a curious little girl decides she must find out exactly how many there are, her mission has her searching high and low, counting squirrels all over town. Only problem is, these frisky squirrels sure move around. Will she ever get a grip on the squirrely squirrel number situation? In this lively count-along book, Ben Gundersheimer' s playful rhyming text, based on a song from his album Pizza for Breakfast, pairs perfectly with Marcos Almada Rivero' s funny, eye-catching illustrations. As children marvel over our heroine' s persistence, they will have fun spotting oodles of rambunctious squirrels.
