Rescue Me — Karen S. McGowan; Dennis E. McGowan

Kindness counts. Sam the Squirrel didn't have much planned for this afternoon. He didn't know how to read. And he was tired of chasing his tail around the tree trunk, so he decided to pester Kelly, the cute dachshund. After being torpedoed by acorns, Kelly lost her cool and began barking at Sam.

A curious neighbor looked to see why Kelly was barking -- and spotted an osprey that was trapped in its nest, a gazillion miles above the clouds. As Lizzy and Ben Jolly ran to find out why the firefighters were called, they discovered hidden secrets about ospreys.

Why was the osprey trapped in its nest? Did the firefighters arrive in time to rescue the osprey from a horrendous fate? You will have to read the book to find out.

Rescue Me is another outstanding Jolly Time Books: Dog Squad presentation, loaded with edgy humor yet heartfelt wisdom. Jolly Time Books are full of individually hand-drawn vivid and colorful illustrations that will spark the imagination of any child.
