Squirrel Crossing
 

 

JeremyJay and his brothers gazed hungrily at the nut-filled tree.  Only one thing stood between the squirrel brothers and those nuts—a busy road filled with tire-squealing, oil-slinging cars.  

“What we need is a plan,” said JeremyJay.

TimTom pumped his fist excitedly and winked at MickMack.  He said, “I’ve got the perfect idea!” And, he scampered off into the bushes.

    

In no time at all, TimTom was back.

“Ta-da!” he said.  “Behold! Double-decker, super-stomper stilts.  Climb up, and we’re off to get the nuts.”
