One fall day, Mom Margie and her two children--Dennis, nine, and Susie, eight--happily walk on a two-way bicycle path surrounded by trees that is frequented by walkers and joggers as well as bicyclists. They listen to birds and watch squirrels run across the path, up the trees, and chase one another. Occasionally, someone walks by, pushing a carriage and/or walking a dog. Dennis turns to his mother. "Can we get a pet? We really want one." Their mom smiles broadly, nodding her head yes. Dennis looks at Susie then at his mother and says that they would like to adopt a squirrel. Margie looks surprised and pulls out her cell phone. "I was not picturing a squirrel, but let's check out if they would make a good house pet." Thus begins The Squirrel Family. This is the author's second children's book.
