The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes

A story of nut-gathering, misunderstandings, and a very tight squeeze! Timmy Tiptoes is a sturdy little squirrel who spends his days working hard with his wife, Goody, to store nuts for the winter. But when the other squirrels wrongly accuse Timmy of being a "nut-thief," a chaotic chase ensues that ends with Timmy being pushed down a hole in a hollow tree. Trapped inside, Timmy discovers he isn't alone. He meets Chippy Hackee, a friendly (if a bit noisy) chipmunk who has plenty of food to share. As Timmy enjoys the hospitality, he grows so round and plump that he finds it impossible to climb back out! Will Timmy ever be able to return home to Goody, or will he remain tucked away in his cozy tree-trunk home forever? Beatrix Potter's delightful adventure about teamwork and honesty, featuring beautiful new illustrations.
