Sasquatch and Squirrel
Deep in the forest, Strawberry the Sasquatch is very happy on her own.
She keeps busy doing all the alone things a Sasquatch does: sneaking, dance moves, foraging, haircare, and more. But one day Nutty, a snack-loving squirrel, comes along. Maybe they can hang out together?
Things don’t exactly go well: Strawberry’s climbing is more like crashing, and Nutty turns out to be terrible at logger pranks. Can these two critters find common ground?
A hilariously charming new story from author and illustrator Chris Monroe, creator of the Monkey with a Tool Belt series!
