A laugh-out-loud counting adventure with a squirrel who just can't get enough nuts!

Nuts About Nuts is a hilarious book about a determined squirrel who is on a mission to collect as many nuts as possible because one is never enough.

Squirrel LOVES nuts—many, many nuts. Follow Squirrel on a hilarious adventure as they gather more and more nuts for their secret stash, determined to keep every last one to themselves. Watch the chaos unfold as Squirrel struggles to haul ALL the nuts up the hill to their hiding place.

But what happens when a passing bird feels peckish? Can Squirrel learn that sharing might be even better than hoarding?

Children will love counting along as Squirrel's nut collection grows from one to one hundred . . . and then tumbles back down again. Open the stunning gatefold spread to reveal just how 'nuts about nuts' Squirrel really is! This clever design invites kids to engage with the story and practice their counting skills in a playful, hands-on way.

Packed with humour, energy, and adorable illustrations by Bia Melo, Nuts About Nuts is the perfect picture book for young children learning to count—and learning to share.
