"RUN, SPARKY, RUN!"
Follow Sparky, a curious baby squirrel, on her journey as she and her siblings, Scooter and Caroline, explore the world under their mother's watchful guidance. As the trio prepares to leave their maple tree, their mother must teach them how to avoid the dangers of the outside world-from hovering hawks to slithering snakes to crushing cars. While Sparky's brother and sister readily accept their mother's teachings, Sparky's inquisitive nature drives her to question these rules-often to her mother's frustration.
Written by Beth Kantrowitz to help her nephew learn to read, Run Sparky, Run! combines adventure, education, and fun. It features scientifically accurate details about Eastern Gray Squirrels, brought to life through realistic illustrations. Like Sparky, all children eventually have to leave the nest. Run, Sparky, Run! teaches kids the importance of safely discovering the world around them and helps guardians find the strength to let go.
