Easygoing and upbeat, Bird lives on the spur of the moment. Squirrel, on the other hand, is fearful, fretful, and hates to be without his toothbrush. But these unlikely companions will have to work together if they want to escape the villainous Cat and survive their trip south for the winter. Light and funny, the text is ideal for beginning readers, while kids who aren't ready to read just yet can appreciate the eye-popping colours and goofy visual details (like Squirrel's acorn helmet and Bird's tiny aviator goggles).
