Scamper Squirrel will have a lot of fun this summer at camp, although if he knew the trouble that Calamity Catie and the sea monster would cause, he might not be so happy about going. Illustrated in color.

Scamper the squirrel enjoys each season, from spring's bright flowers to summer picnics, colorful autumn leaves, and winter's blanket of snow.

Scamper, a big grey squirrel, lives in a wonderful place filled with everything he could ever want to eat--apples, plums, pecans, and the delicious cornbread Aunt Boo makes. There was one catch to his living here. As winter nears, Scamper doesn't know where to store his pecans, so he has a tough decision to make.

Join Scamper the squirrel as he sees the seasons for the very first time: bright spring flowers . . . yummy summer picnics . . . crunchy fall leaves . . . swirling winter snowflakes. Scamper can't decide which season is his favorite. Can you? FROM AMERICA'S MOST TRUSTED NAME IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION More than seventy years of educational research and innovative teaching have given the Bank Street College of Education the reputation as America's most trusted name in early childhood education. Because no two children are exactly alike in their development, we have designed the Bank Street Ready-to-Read series in three levels to accommodate the individual stages of reading readiness of children ages four through eight. - Level 1: GETTING READY TO READ-- (PRE-K to GRADE 1) Books are perfect for reading aloud with children who are getting ready to read or are just beginning to read words or phrases. - Level 2: READING TOGETHER--(GRADES 1 to 3) Books are written especiallly for children who are on their way to reading independently but who may need help. - Level 3: I CAN READ IT MYSELF--(GRADES 2 to 3) Books are designed for children able to read on their own. They also can be enjoyed as read-alouds.
