"This gentle, simply told story addresses the importance and enjoyment of friendship and collaboration." --Kirkus Reviews A chipmunk searches for someone to sing along with her in this sweet and funny celebration of true friendship, featuring art by New York Times bestselling illustrator Scott Magoon. Chipmunk spends her days sitting on her rock and chirping her song--sometimes it's happy, sometimes it's bittersweet, and sometimes it's very sad indeed. When Chipmunk goes off to find a companion that will sing along with her, she encounters some bumps (and pine cones) along the way, and finds friends (and harmonies) in unexpected places.
