About the Book

In this humorous fantasy for all ages, Squirrel Girl, a passenger pigeon, and a calico cat attempt to organize the wildlife to try to save the colonial forests and their own lives. With the unknowing help of the calico cat's human partner, a radical Spanish naturalist, Squirrel Girl and her friends take on the seemingly impossible. Determined to do some good and justify the fact that her mother died to save her life, she gets predators and prey to cooperate for one spectacular attempt to discourage settlers and send them back home. There is a clear villain, Finn, a man who enslaves the indentured servants he brings to America and forces them to clear the land for development, and most animals are more than willing to fight against him. But her cause is hopeless, because the stream of settlers is endless, and most of them are not like Finn but are just struggling like the wild critters to exist. So Squirrel Girl takes on one last challenge, coexistence with man.
About the Author: Barbara Marquardt has an M.A. in creative writing from the University of Illinois at Chicago and has published many individual poems, but this is her first published book. She has earned her living teaching, mostly English at the college level and English, biology, environmental science, and history at the high school level. For many years, she spent most of her spare time studying nature and volunteering in various ways to try to preserve it. The book Squirrel Girl uses this experience and is intended for adults as well as children, as, in the tradition of Animal Farm and Watership Down, it uses animals to comment on human society. But the author hopes that the story alone will be entertaining for all age groups.
