A game of squirrels—and sibling negotiation

A younger brother’s squirrel game gives this picture-book premise its shape: collecting nuts, jumping, running, and inviting family into the make-believe. The older brother initially refuses to join, setting up a familiar clash between one child’s enthusiasm and another’s reluctance. Their squabbling eventually shifts the game, with the possibility of a predator entering the play. The story connects imaginative play with the changing dynamics between siblings, keeping both ideas in view rather than treating the squirrel antics as an isolated fantasy.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy animal characters and make-believe play
  • Families looking for a story centered on sibling disagreements and play

Book overview

Join in with imaginary play through the eyes of a little boy who believes he IS a squirrel!

'The hardest part of being a squirrel...is that my brother won't play with me. Because he doesn't believe I am a squirrel!'

The younger brother likes doing everything a squirrel does--running, jumping, collecting nuts, having squirrel friends and playing with his family. But his older brother refuses to join in with his play--he thinks it's too silly. But eventually, after much squabbling between the two, the older brother can't resist joining in... perhaps it's time for a predator to join the game!

Packed with humor and fun, I am a Squirrel is a hilarious escapade about two brothers and their up-and-down relationship, told through Scott Rothman's clever writing and Tom Tinn-Disbury's lovable characters.

This ode to imaginative play will inspire playtime and ensure both parents and children will be laughing-out-loud, too.
