Verle the Squirrel Shoots for the Stars
All Verle wants is peace, quiet, and a good supply of acorns, but his annoying cousin Burford and his nemesis, the always hungry Vulpy the Fox, leave his life in a constant state of agitation.
When aliens from the planet Jurak arrive in search of a tutor for their leader’s daughter, Verle sets out to win the job. As he gains front runner status, he discovers the downside, not only for him but also for the naïve Burford. When his efforts to discredit himself fail miserably, he fashions a last strategy. Will it work, or will he doom both himself and Burford?
Verle and the Legend Creepy Hollow
When Icky Crane vanishes, panic sweeps through the woodland community. After the toad Warts Schwartz implicates supernatural forces centered in Creepy Hollow, the crowd sends Verle, Burford, and ‘Arold the English Sparrow out to investigate. Along the way, they encounter a band of distrustful gnomes, a Bobcat with a sweet tooth, and the denizens of the hollow. What happened to Icky? What role do the Canadian geese Trom Bones and Katrina Corn Tassel have to play? Coming soon, the answers.
The wait is over. For those millions (or do I exaggerate slightly?) who have been wildly clamoring for more squirrel action. As Verle learns, one success leads to more trouble. Now available via Amazon.
