/divDIV
Upper Forest is the kingdom of an ancient clan of squirrels. For years they have lived and died in the trees, building an elaborate civilization high above the earth. Since man came to Forest, the trees have been thinned, but there are still enough thick groves where the squirrels can run from branch to branch, going days without touching the ground. To avoid people, their natural enemies, the squirrels make their homes higher than any human can climb—or so they think. But they haven’t met Amber Padgett./divDIV /divDIVSwift, bright, and fearless, Amber has never fit in among humans.

But Amber’s father, and other people in town, think the squirrels are pests and try to get rid of them. Which will triumph: friendship or war?/divDIV /divDIVThis ebook features a personal history by Janet Taylor Lisle including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s own collection.
