A True Story of Little Red Squirrel Bernice Pat Sommers

This compelling true story is a must read for children 6 to 9 years old. It is told in rhyme about a baby squirrel which the author adopted. It started on a cold rainy day in fall when a baby red squirrel came to call. He must have fallen out of a nest and was looking for a safe place to rest. Cold and hungry he hoped to find a warm cozy place with folks who were kind. He looked up at the author and somehow knew, she was kind. He ran over and sat on top of her shoe and began a rather long relationship told in this story in rhyme. The author, Pat Sommers, was born and raised in Schenectady, NY, but after her marriage to Frank Sommers, she relocated to a rural area in Burnt Hills, NY. Pat was a teacher for 35 years. Pat was not only a unique teacher, but, continually demonstrated her creativity on projects she did for her grandchildren. Thus, this book on "Little Red" was one of the ways she shared her experiences with her grandchildren.
