This was a cute little book about the balance of play and work. I like the fact that squirrel plays with his friends but also helps his family around the house.
Cute illustrations, but not a lot of substance. Not something I would use for educating my child, maybe just for fun and easy reading.
Little Squirrel is about a squirrel who hides nuts so that he has food in the winter. It’s short and the illustrations are very cute. This book is best suited for babies and toddlers.
There nothing wrong with the book, it just isn’t particularly exciting or special. I feel like I had read a million books about squirrels hiding nuts for winter as a teacher of young children. I, personally, feel there are others out there that are more interesting as a whole.
However, I will say this is a perfectly fine book to read to very young children.
Thank-you netgalley, Britta Teckentrup, and Orca Book Publishers for allowing me to read this arc! All thoughts and opinions are my own.
This was a cute and quick read with beautiful illustrations. Unfortunately, the story wasn’t very captivating, and it ended abruptly. I could see young children that pay much attention to plot enjoying this, though.
Super cute, short, and simple. It's perfect for kids with emphasis on illustrations. My son was able to follow along and he really liked the pictures.
"Fall is coming, it's time to get ready!'
The squirrel family resides high up in an old oak tree. Little squirrel adores playing and chasing his friends from branch to branch but he is about to learn a very valuable life lesson. Play time is loads of fun but sometimes you have to stop your frivolity and dwell on more serious things in life. Winter is fast approaching and he must help his family gather food so they can survive the harsh season that is closing in on them. He learns the value of being a contributor to his family's needs and that even though he is young he has responsibilities too.
The illustrations in this board book are well done and little Squirrel is an adorable character. It is lovely to know that it was printed in Germany on 100% recycled paper using eco-friendly inks. It is part of the All Natural series that features a variety of young animals and how they live. I recommend this book.
This is an adorable book that will great for story time. I loved the illustrations and like that the book is eco-friendly!
A cute board book for young children about a squirrel in his habitat getting ready for winter. Eye catching drawings will have kids examining the pages and finding just what squirrel is up to!

"Squirrels favorite game is tag" but sometimes the games have to stop long enough to help our families. In the case of squirrel and his family it is preparing for winter, this simple story opens up the dialogue of responsibily and helping ones own family.
I recieved a digital copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I’m a big fan of Britta’s Moon book, so I was pretty excited to check this out as a potential bedtime read for the daughter.
Much shorter than I thought it’d be, but it’s a neat and colorful work. If your kid likes squirrels, it’ll be a hit.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Orca Book Publishers for the advance read.
Little Squirrel by Britta Teckentrup is a charming story about nature for young readers. The illustrations are gorgeous and full of depth, and the story gives parents lots of room to ask questions and expand upon the story as the kids grow. It's both endearing and educational.
Many thanks to Orca Book Publishers and NetGalley for the advance copy.
Short, sweet story of a little squirrel getting ready for winter with his family. This book will part of a series with various other animals portrayed. I think littles will enjoy hearing and learning about the animals that live among us. The illustrations are adorable!
This was a great book for teaching little ones about nature and different seasons. I really like the art, and appreciate the book's eco-friendly printing. This would be fun for storytime with any age.
Little squirrel is a cute board book for little ones. The illustrations are gorgeous. The story can be read as is or used to learn colors or counting with the acorns.
We loved this! My kiddo liked pointing out the lady bugs and counting up all
The acorns! The colors were very pretty and I liked the sweet story through the changing seasons!
Awe, so sweet :) I love the Illustrations in this sweet short story and can't wait to read this book and others from this series to my grand daughter!
This was a really adorable book for babies and young toddlers. The pictures were so cute and the text was both interesting and soothing!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an electronic copy to read and review.
This is such a cute little book! It will make a perfect gift for a baby's first library. The story is about a little squirrel and how he collects food for the winter. The illustrations are bright and vivid. I will definitely be adding this to baby gifts in the future.
Little Squirrel is a book telling all about squirrels through the seasons. The illustrations were very well done and colorful. The book is printed on recycled, all natural materials which is pretty neat. I liked the book as it provides a look at how squirrels prepare for winter. I did feel like the book just ended, like it's missing a way of wrapping the book up at the end. I think my daughter would enjoy this book as she loves watching the squirrels in our backyard. Perfect for a younger child who is interested in animals.
I received this ebook in exchange for an honest and fair review.
