Books with title The Squirrel

Alex the squirrel was fast. The fastest squirrel out there, anywhere, in the whole wide world. Humans below might catch a brief glance at him zipping from rooftop to rooftop, scaling the humans buildings like they were trees themselves. His father, an immigrant squirrel from a foreign land would tell him to slow down, he would get hurt one day. Alex always thought his father was too cautious. His father was right. One day, on one of his runs, Alex made a leap that would change his and his families lives forever. Leaping onto a drainpipe on a low lying building Alex slipped, landing in a grease barrel from one the humans' restaurants. As he struggled, fought, sure the end was near, a hand, a human hand fished him out. Shocked and disorientated Alex ran as quickly as he could for shelter, diving out of the alien hands of the human to seek relief, bogged down by the sludgy, thick grease matting his fur. Chicken wings, rib ends, french fries, odd sea creatures they called Calamari. These scents were matted now in his fur and they were not going away. This is the story of the siege that took place in the small man made park in the middle of the human's city. The story of young Alex versus packs of predators bent on claiming the prize of nabbing 'The Tastiest Squirrel' in Canada. It's going to take a lot of courage and even more luck to stop the inevitable...
