Scamper, the big gray squirrel that lived in Aunt Boo’s backyard, needed a new place to stay since his hide away had been discovered. The winter winds began to blow and Scamper searches for another warm and cozy place to spend the winter.

Join Scamper in his fourth book of Scamper the Mischievous Squirrel Series. Scamper discovers snow, children, animal friends and the joy of Christmas.

Here is Scamper planning how to get into mischief:

Scamper Christmas

 

Christmas was right around the corner. Scamper sat on a branch of the old oak tree thinking about the fun he had in Aunt Boo’s attic before Aunt Boo spoiled it by chasing him out.

3. Catch A Winner and the Mystery Horse

Jill loved her horse, Catch A Winner, who was nicknamed Whinny. Jill was thrilled to take Whinny to Wood’s Boarding Stables and to meet other children and their horses. But as busy and excited as she was, Jill noticed and wanted to help the gray mystery horse that stayed in his stall all alone. She took the time to talk to Mr. Wood about how they could help the lonely horse. Jill and Whinny were happy to see Big Gray being ridden out of stable, and they were overjoyed at Whinny’s success in the horse show.

 

Jill, with Whinny trailing not far behind, hurried back to see the big gray horse.

“We have good news for you, Big Gray,“ Jill said, beaming from ear to ear.

Big Gray, who stood in the far corner of his stall, suddenly came out of the shadows toward them. He leaned his head over the gate and touched noses with Whinny. Then Jill put her hand out for Big Gray to sniff. She wanted to show him that she was his friend, too.

“Now we are getting somewhere,” said Jill.

Whinny nickered in agreement.

Scamper, The Mischievous Squirrel: Book 3

Scamper, the big grey squirrel that lived in Aunt Boo’s backyard, dreamed of finding a cozy hide-away for the winter. He searched and he searched and he searched until he found the perfect hide-away. It was warm and comfortable and filled with everything a squirrel could ever want to play with.

Scamper was so happy in his new hide-away until Aunt Boo heard his tiny footsteps in the attic. Then Scamper’s hide-away wasn’t so cozy and fun any more.

6. Author Pat Taylor as Aunt Boo

Author Pat Taylor as Aunt Boo reading to children

Author Pat Eytcheson Taylor has brought a new perspective to reading to elementary school children with fun and laughter. She is both the author and a character—Aunt Boo—in her books.

Pat Taylor has a knack for communicating with animals, and, in turn, they share their stories with her. The entertaining stories are beautifully illustrated.

Throughout the Christmas holidays, her first book in her  series about a squirrel, Scamper with the Peanut Butter Feet, became extremely popular across Texas. Aunt Boo teaches Scamper, the mischievous squirrel, a good lesson.

The second book in the series, Hide and Seek with Scamper, has just been released and is already proving to be another winner. Two more Scamper books will follow in the spring.

The books are available at the Twig Bookshop in San Antonio, Read All about It in Boerne, and Hastings Book Store in Kerrville, as well as Barnes and Noble and Borders and Amazon.com.

Of course, you can also order the books right here directly from the author and get them autographed as well.

7. Hide and Seek with Scamper

Scamper, the Mischievous Squirrel: Book 2

Scamper was a big grey squirrel who lived in a wonderful place filled with everything he could ever want to eat—apples, plums, pecans, and the delicious cornbread Aunt Boo made. There was one catch to his living here. He had Aunt Boo to put up with, or should I say, Aunt Boo had to put up with him.

When winter came, Scamper knew he had to be prepared with a source of food. He had gathered more than enough pecans. Now Scamper did not know where to store them. All his favorite places were full. He had a tough decision to make.

8. Scamper with the Peanut Butter Feet

Scamper was a big gray squirrel who lived in Aunt Boo’s yard. His greatest enjoyment came from annoying her. He helped himself to the best fruits from her prize orchard, took the biggest nuts from her pecan trees, and ate the golden cornbread she baked for the birds. Scamper made a general nuisance of himself, while constantly dreaming of being king of the backyard. Aunt Boo thought and thought about how she could get even and teach Scamper a lesson at the same time. Her unique, yet simple, solution would teach Scamper to be satisfied with what he had.

The list price of the book is $15.00, but you can order directly from the publisher at the discounted price of $12.00.
