Description

Fat grey squirrel Timmy Tiptoes and his wife Goody gather nuts into bags and hollow stumps near their leaf-thatched nest, until other squirrels and a hard turn of luck put their careful store and comfort at risk. Gentle woodland adventure for the ear. Spoken as when Timmy Tiptoes still asks what a squirrel can keep once greedy neighbours already know where the nuts are hid.

Author

Beatrix Potter (1866–1943) gave the world Peter Rabbit, then spent a lifetime proving she was more than a nursery name. A Victorian girl who drew what she saw — animals, plants, the texture of a garden wall — she made books in which every cabbage and jacket button earns its place. Later she became Mrs Heelis of the Lakes, a sheep farmer and a fierce guardian of countryside.
