Squirrel-ish is a fun illustrated children's book in free verse written and illustrated by Bambi Edlund. Due out 17th Sept 2024 from Owlkids Books, it's 32 pages and will be available in hardcover format.
This is a wonderfully illustrated sweet story about accepting ourselves for who we are and not comparing ourselves to others (whose lives might seem easier and better but who have their own challenges we might not see). There are good takeaways for all ages, though it's aimed at 4-7 year olds (Lexile AD420L).
The illustrations are funny and quirky with lots of little details that add to the read.
It's a lovely book and is appropriate for all ages. It would
make a nice gift for any youngster, a good library or classroom book,
and a superlative read-to-me book.
Five stars. Funny and positive.
