Reading Made Fun!
Peanut and Sparky is gorgeous illustrated children's book about a silly little baby squirrel named Peanut and a feisty Golden Lab named Sparky. Children books can be very amusing with such an unlikely duo!
You Are Best Friends with a Squirrel and a Dog!?
Yep. My best friends are a sassy little squirrel named Peanut and my Golden Labrador Retriever name Sparky. They are a silly duo that you'd never expect. My neighbors look at me awkward when I take Peanut and Sparky out for a walk on separate leashes. I just smile and wave.
How did you get a pet squirrel?
Now that's a pretty funny story.. He's not really a pet. He's ACTUALLY family now. I've known Peanut since he was a baby. That's what this book is about! It's the story of how he joined our family. I do not want to give away the whole story!
How did you get a squirrel and dog to get along?
When I figure it out, I'll let you know! Peanut tries to ride Sparky like a horse. Sparky does not always like this. They quarrel from time to time just like a brother and sister would, but they always make up and get along.
What did Mama say when Peanut and Sparky wrecked the house!?
Ummm... No comment. Actually I gotta go. Uhhh... Here comes Mama!
Check out the book for the rest of the story!

Arnie Lighting has written a book that will be enjoyed by children of all ages. Though it is hard to tell whether the child is a boy or a girl, not that it matters so much, but would make it easier when asking children questions about the story. Of course this way, they can decide for themselves whether it is a little girl or boy in the story, and even give reasons why.
Children will thrill to learn what happens to the squirrel, how the boy captures it, what the boy's mom and dad think when they see it, can he keep it, how did the boy care for the baby squirrel, does he walk the squirrel with a leash, what do the neighbors think, and how does sparky get along with Peanut.
This story makes having a pet wild squirrel look like a lot of fun and shows ways to trap a squirrel, so children will be enticed to try this themselves. If you must have a pet squirrel, buy a flying squirrel from a pet shop, don't keep a wild one. Plus, squirrels don't usually carry rabies, but they can.
