Item Description
Written by Hawk Mountain member, volunteer and skilled photographer Kathy Miller, this award-winning children's book is sure to delight nature lovers of all ages.
Based on Kathy's own delightful and humorous photographs of a chipmunk and his antics as he explores the author's garden. Each photograph offers the reader a close-up view of the Eastern Chipmunk, and the harnessed energy in still frame provides interesting expressions not available to the naked eye.
Few can resist the charm of these lively, independent woodland creatures when they pause in their scampering to gaze cheerfully at you with large glossy eyes, and this signed book is sure to please any youngster---or even adult!---in your life.
The winning bidder will receive signed copies of Chippy Chipmunk: Parties in the Garden and the follow-up, Chippy Chipmunk: Babies in the Garden. Accompanying these fun-loving and entertaining books is an eastern chipmunk hand puppet.
