Frisky Squirrel leaps from branch to branch, looking for adventure anywhere he can find it. His appetite for action amid his neighborhood of fields, meadows, and forests leads him into some narrow escapes. Frisky's encounters with Mr. Hawk, Jimmy Rabbit, Farmer Green's cat, and other woodland denizens teach him valuable lessons about honesty, bravery, and other virtues.
The second in Arthur Scott Bailey's Sleepy-Time Tales series, this volume features brief chapters that are perfect for bedtime reading. Black-and-white illustrations by Harry L. Smith add old-fashioned charm to the tales of Frisky's escapades.

Author of more than 40 children's books, Arthur Scott Bailey was a Harvard graduate and a contemporary of Thornton Burgess. He shared Burgess's style of wholesome storytelling, spinning tales of anthropomorphic creatures in the natural world.
