Description Share Post Ten Tiny Squirrels Kael Tudor, illustrated by Marc Boutavant (Scholastic) All the little squirrels are lined up on a branch. Bear says “Ten Tiny Squirrels sitting in a line, one runs away and then there were…”. But they all run off and Bear sets about tracking them down. He finds nine budgies, then eight geese (who are very rude). Seven polar bears are very scary, so Bear quickly moves on. In the next room, it seems like there are no animals there, until Bear looks more closely…Yes, there are six chameleons. Still Bear’s search continues. There are five mice, then four ducks. The ducks have seen them going that-a-way. Three rocks, no…three tortoises have also seen them. We then see two budgies (where have the other seven gone?). Finally, Bear gets a major clue to there they might be from one tiger. Bear fears that the tiger may have eaten them, but no. They are safe and sound. So, bears starts the song again: “Ten Tiny Squirrels sitting in a line, one runs away and then there were…”. Guess what happens next?
