Books with title Red Strawberry

The Zimmermans are a Maine family that adopted three children from different parts of the world. Six-year old Yuna was born in Korea, seven-year-old Diego came from Guatemala, and nine-year old Maila, who uses a wheelchair, was born in Somalia. They love to adopt animals, too, and with a mom who's a vet, they're always ready for more! Plus, the kids know something their parents don't: Maila can communicate with animals telepathically, and learn about each species' particular view of the world. So when a baby squirrel gets hurt falling out of a tree in their backyard, they name her Strawberry for the patch of bushes she fell into, and decide to nurse her back to health. It turns out that squirrels are great at mental maps, so they can give you driving directions, or help you build huge Lego cities. They find out that squirrels gnaw all the time, so if you give them a chair, they might just think it's a snack! And they're fun-loving and small, so one might just hitch a ride in your backpack to school. But squirrels love their families, too. Can the Zimmermans help Strawberry get back home?

The land was theirs, but so were its hardships. Strawberries - big, ripe, and juicy. Ten-year-old Birdie Boyer can hardly wait to start picking them. But her family has just moved to the Florida backwoods, and they haven't even begun their planting. "Don't count your biddies 'fore they're hatched, gal young un!" her father tells her. Making the new farm prosper is not easy. There is heat to suffer through, and droughts, and cold snaps. And, perhaps most worrisome of all for the Boyers, there are rowdy neighbors, just itching to start a feud.
