About this book from goodreads:
Instead of storing acorns, a carefree squirrel, named Stick, enjoys eating junk food all summer. In the winter, he depends on the food his family saved and he learns the value of saying “I’m sorry” and forgiveness. The story continues when none of the squirrels can find enough food to eat and Stick sees a courageous way to make up for his irresponsibility. Teachable moments mixed with humor help children see the importance of mending families and friendships. Delightful illustrations bring giggles and compliment this character-building story making it appropriate for preschool, kindergarten and on up.

My little girl loves stories. Therefore, I'm always looking for children books to share with her. She liked this one a lot and I hope your kids like it too.
One favorite thing about this book is how the author guides the reader in the discovery process without been obvious. Kids understand why things happen by analyzing. One Tree has lovely illustrations and character design. Colors are beautiful and the story is refreshing. Love the complete idea and environment design.
The writing style engages the kid's interest and curiosity. The story is simple yet full of life's lessons for our children.
