Stanley Finds a Friend

By Dr. Susan Barr

Meet Stanley - a curious little squirrel with a bushy tail, a cozy nest, and very big dreams of adventure

High in the mighty oak tree behind the Parker family's cheerful yellow house lives Stanley, along with his mother, father, and little sister, Susie. Stanley longs to explore the wide world below, but first he must learn how to stay safe. With patient lessons from his father, a daring rescue of Susie's beloved pink hair bow, and a clever acorn map scratched into the bark of the old oak, Stanley discovers that growing up takes courage, care, and a little imagination. Then one tumble from the nest changes everything - and Stanley comes nose-to-nose with Gingi, the Parkers' friendly dog, who just might become his very first friend.

The first book in the Stanley the Squirrel Series, this warmly illustrated story celebrates curiosity, family, kindness, and the joy of making new friends. A delightful read-aloud for children ages 3-8 - and the beginning of many backyard adventures to come
