Chippy Chipmunk

Chippy Chipmunk: Babies in the Garden is a delightful glimpse into the real lives of baby chipmunks featuring more than sixty beautiful photographs and an educational, fun narrative. The second book in this multi-award-winning series continues the adventures of Chippy, the author's resident chipmunk, who we met in Chippy Chipmunk Parties in the Garden. Chippy finds his mate Lily and falls in love. This book captures humorous and intimate moments of their young interacting in the author's garden and finding their way in the world. Since chipmunks quickly disperse within a few weeks of emerging from the burrow, author/photographer Kathy Miller provides rare moments in a natural habitat most people never see. Interesting facts about baby chipmunks are included that enhance learning, expand vocabulary, and raise a child's curiosity. Miller's unique approach and style narrow the growing gap between children and nature. This high-quality, enlightening book merges the best of visual and language arts, science, photography, and narrative.
