Description
Always pleasing others can sometimes have a cost. After Raccoon Wants To Be First and Fox Tells a Lie, comes Squirrel Has Trouble Saying No - a book about learning to be assertive.
It is Bear's birthday tomorrow and Squirrel would like to prepare some delicious blueberry cookies for him. With just enough time to make them, she is about to set off to gather the blueberries from the forest when Fox arrives needing her help, followed by Duck and Doe too!
When she finishes doing favours for all her friends, it is already night time and she still needs to gather the blueberries! With the light of the moon, she enters the forest, but by morning, she is still not back and her friends begin to worry. What has happened to Squirrel?
A thoughtful story about finding your voice and learning to say no.

She is the author of many children's books, most of them distributed internationally and translated into over a dozen languages. She has been awarded the Silver Medal in the Moonbeam Children's Book Awards 2013 in the USA. Leire Salaberria has exhibited her work in different countries around the world. Her work has been selected to appear in Bologna Children's Book Fair 2012 and IV Ibero-American catalog of illustration 2013, 2014.
