What's Trouble About

Publisher Summary

A thoughtful and entertaining children’s parable about prejudice, starring a captivating trio of squirrel, mouse, and bear! When a very large bear moves in next door, Squirrel is sure he can only be trouble for her and her beloved pet mouse, Chamomile. He has terrible teeth, and knife like claws, and huge, horrifying hungers . . . at least that’s how Squirrel sees him. But where Squirrel sees trouble, Chamomile sees a new neighbor just trying to be friendly. Who is right…..and who is really causing trouble? Here is a charming story with an important and age-appropriate message about making assumptions.
