"The perfect addition to any classroom library for building SEL connections and sparking meaningful conversations about kindness and belonging." Erin Hablutzel Curriculum and Instruction Administrator

Garbage Squirrel is a heartwarming picture book that helps children understand kindness, empathy, and second chances. Through an adventurous story filled with meaningful lessons, kids learn what it means to grow, forgive, and find belonging.

Everyone deserves a place to call home, even snack-stealing squirrels!

Life at the zoo is no picnic for Gary, a scrappy squirrel who stirs up trouble wherever he goes. But when his wild ways bring him face-to-face with a giant polar bear and a little lizard, everything changes.

Can a bit of bravery and a second chance help Gary find a new home?

Perfect for kids who love animals, daring adventures, and feel-good endings, Garbage Squirrel is a story about empathy, resilience, and the magic of finding community in the unlikeliest places.

A perfect addition to SEL and classroom libraries, this story teaches:

  • The importance of kindness and empathy
  • How to make things right after a mistake
  • The value of friendship and forgiveness
  • That everyone deserves a second chance

Ideal for children ages 4-8, Garbage Squirrel supports social-emotional learning and encourages positive character traits through an engaging zoo adventure.

If you enjoy meaningful stories like The Bad Seed, The Cool Bean, or Giraffes Can't Dance, you'll love following Gary's journey toward friendship and belonging.

Bring home Garbage Squirrel - a touching story about courage, compassion, and finding your place in the world.
