One squirrel's adventure begins with forging for acorns for his "momma" who is waiting at home ready to cook the family her famous acorn pie. Like many squirrels, this particular squirrel family lives near a country road not far from a old German town farm. The young squirrel's trek leads him down a long country gravely road which hurts his bare paws. The squirrel makes new friends and they, in turn, began calling him Sneakers. Do you want to know why? Sneakers was once an oral story created by Shawn & Jael on sleepless nights. The talents of Shawn (an accomplished writer), Jael (a witty linguist), Andrew (an avid literature critique), and Scott (a starving artist) led to a successful fusion for this new children book series. The book has over 20 illustrations depicting the various scenes the comical farm animals find themselves. A Squirrel We Call Sneakers is the first of three installments in this new children's book series inspired by the book Over The Hedge by Andrews McMeel.
