Review

This picture book was too cute to pass up! The Secret Life of Squirrels: A Love Story is full of photos that will warm your heart. They will make you smile from the very first page until the very last.

I actually read this book aloud to my hubby and our cat. It was easy and quick. The story was simple but perfectly fit each picture and the scene presented. I think my cat quite enjoyed looking at the photos as I pointed at them ;)

As explained at the end of the book- the author sets up each scene and waits for the squirrels to get into the shot. I'm amazed at the quality of each picture and how natural they turned out. The little handmade props definitely upped the adorable factor.

Pick up The Secret Life of Squirrels: A Love Story and enjoy all the cuteness! It's a picture book that's sure to bring smiles to countless faces~
