A mischievous little chipmunk, a mighty bald eagle, and one unforgettable lesson beneath the Flower Moon!
On the beautiful shores of Michigan's Mackinac Island, where fragrant lilacs bloom, woodland creatures scurry, and the waters of the Great Lakes sparkle, lives a spirited little chipmunk named Tumblewhisk.
With bright eyes, busy paws, and a magnificent fluffy tail, Tumblewhisk believes he is the cleverest creature in the forest. But he has one troublesome habit-he simply cannot behave himself!
When Tumblewhisk ignores his mother's warnings and repeatedly teases Old Silverfeather, a powerful bald eagle, his mischievous adventures take a surprising turn. One frightening encounter leaves him with a much shorter tail and a lesson he will never forget.
Inspired by the Ojibwe (Chippewa) traditions of Michigan and the Flower Moon, one of the Thirteen Moons of Turtle Island, this charming woodland adventure introduces young readers to the importance of respecting elders, listening to wise advice, practicing humility, and treating others with kindness.
Inside this beautifully illustrated children's book, readers will discover:
- A playful woodland adventure filled with humor and gentle suspense.
- The natural beauty of Mackinac Island, including its famous Arch Rock, flowering lilacs, and Great Lakes shoreline.
- Meaningful lessons about respect, kindness, humility, and the consequences of making fun of others.
- An introduction to the Ojibwe Flower Moon and the changing seasons of Turtle Island.
- Soft, vintage watercolor illustrations inspired by classic woodland storybooks.
Perfect for children ages 4-8, bedtime reading, classrooms, family storytime, and anyone who loves charming animal tales with meaningful lessons.
Part of The Moons of Turtle Island series by Nichole Elise Jeonotte, this heartwarming story reminds us that being clever is not nearly as important as being kind.
Sometimes the greatest lessons come from the smallest creatures-and the biggest mistakes.
