From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2-A squirrel, dozing in a tree, laughs at the exertions of a bee, an ant, a robin, and a spider as they return from a full day at their respective "jobs." Convinced that the tasks he performs are the hardest of all, the boastful squirrel sets out to prove that he can easily do the work of the other creatures. He soon discovers that gathering pollen and crumbs, digging for earthworms, and spinning a web are more difficult than he imagined. When the new friends reach an agreement-that everyone's job is hard, but uniquely suited to the individual-they celebrate with a snack. The cartoonlike, anthropomorphic depictions of the animals are done in watercolor, gouache paint, and pen, and offer an amusing visual interpretation of the text. Lots of dialogue and a clear moral lesson make this story well suited to reading aloud.
