Little creatures. Big adventures In the year 1214, a baby squirrel falls from the nest and lands in the passing saddlebag of a 13-year-old boy. Still blind, deaf, hairless and unable to eat solid food, there is little hope for Puttermunch's survival. Moved by the persistent pleading of his distraught mother, a selection of five squirrels set out to find Puttermunch, launching a perilous and life-altering journey on the Way of St. James in Spain.The road is fraught with failure for Billowtail, Tippy, Nip, Sugarcoat and Sir Sniff, until these well-meaning tree squirrels, born to be loners and hoarders, learn the value of community and self-sacrifice. Written for middle schoolers and young adults, but enjoyable for all ages!
作者簡介
Sherry Boas holds a B.S. in journalism from Arizona State University and wrote for a daily newspaper for ten years. Although she won numerous awards as a journalist, it was her vocation as a mother that would best prepare her for an author's career. For her, truth resounds in the struggles and triumphs of every-day family life. And fiction, although made up, must still be true.Sherry has a passion for truth and is picky about little else. Except, of course, how her coffee is grown, harvested, roasted, ground, stored and brewed. She places such a high value on friendship, however, that she will drink even a bad cup of coffee with a good friend.Sherry and her husband, Phil, are the joyful adoptive parents of four warm-hearted and highly-adrenalized human beings, who make life rich beyond belief. They live in Arizona.
