All the Relevant Information

"Squirrels" is an excellent source of information for the truly curious. It is well organized and full of well done graphics, effectively covering such things as nesting and mating habits, diet, and reproduction. The size of the book makes it easy to carry along on road and camping trips.

squirrels are our friends

My husband just gave me this book after I talked about how much I enjoy watching squirrels in our neighborhood and that I wanted to learn more about them. I haven't read the entire book yet, but so far it is very interesting. Sometimes the everyday things in our world can be the most fascinating.

A good squirrely book

This book is useful as a reference work for the backyard wildlife enthusiast. I maintain a web site about squirrels, and I often refer to my copy to answer online questions from people around the world. My only criticism is that some of the artwork is not entirely realistic. Some of the drawings have the squirrels' heads shaped more like a seal than a rodent.
