Bookroo's summary

Timmy Tiptoes finds himself trapped inside a hollow tree after a misunderstanding. With the help of a friendly chipmunk, he must find a way out before his love for nuts makes escape impossible. As a strong wind blows the tree open, Timmy's round shape becomes his biggest obstacle. Can he overcome his predicament and return to the Lake District woods? Discover the charming tale of woodland creatures and unexpected friendships in this delightful adventure.

From the publisher

After a terrible misunderstanding, poor Timmy Tiptoes ends up deep inside the trunk of a dead tree, with no means of getting out. Luckily, the chipmunk who lived there was very friendly and kind to Timmy. Before long, a strong wind blows the top off the dead tree trunk, but poor Timmy can’t get himself out on account of eating far too many nuts and being a little bit too round! Beatrix wrote this story to appeal directly to her American fans and featured animals of American origin (grey squirrels, chipmunks and a black bear) all living happily in the Lake District woods!
