A review by cmorrisclark
Nuts to You by Lynne Rae Perkins

4.0

Read this aloud to my six year old. I think I probably enjoyed it a bit more than her. Some of the words and vocabulary were definitely above her comprehension level. Still, we both looked forward to reading a couple of chapters each night.

As the adult, I greatly enjoyed the book. Perkins wove in many tender, humorous and clever bits in a story which also seems very relevant to today in our culture of fear of the outsider. I loved the section at the end where the neighboring squirrel community was contemplating whether or not to accept the refugee community. I loved how she shared the things that bring us together.
