The Search for Z: A Nutty Alphabet Book (Oakley the Squirrel)

by Nancy Rose (Author)

Reading Level: K − 1st Grade

Real squirrels, real photos! Help Oakley the Squirrel find the missing letter Z in this charming alphabet book.

Oakley the Squirrel: The Search for Z is an alphabet book like no other. In it, we meet Little Oakley as he embarks on a quest to find the letter Z. He searches through an alphabet of human objects--looks beneath the Bed, claws through the Closet, digs through Drawers, examines his Easel, and so on. By the time he gets to a basket of yarn, Oakley starts to yawn, and soon falls asleep. And Z--as in, Zzzzzz!--appears!

Every page features photos of real squirrels--no photoshopping! Photographer Nancy Rose lures squirrels into her photo frame using strategically placed peanuts, so they appear in squirrel-sized sets that replicate indoor human life, complete with beds, hats, dining tables and food, laundry machines, campers, and more. It's irresistible!
