Was it Jed? Well, readers will have to figure that out. And one day, while she was sitting on a bench enjoying the sunshine and a peanut butter sandwich, a squirrel asked for a smidgen of peanut butter in exchange for a story.

Newbery Medalist Lynne Rae Perkins loves peanut butter, too. It turns out they love games and really good stories. It turns out that squirrels are steadfast and fun-loving.

New communities are discovered, new friends made, huge danger is encountered (both man-made and of the fox and bobcat variety) and the mysteries of squirrel culture are revealed. So when Jed is snatched up by a hawk and carried away to another realm, TsTs and Chai resolve to go after him. Jed, TsTs, and Chai are the very best of friends.
