Jonesboro author Rachael Ann Bowman will be signing copies of her new book “Sammy the Karate Squirrel” Saturday, June 20, 1–3 p.m. at A Betterway Cafe, 320 Dividend Drive in Peachtree City.
Here is a summary of the story:
“Sammy, a young squirrel, lives in a pecan tree with his mother, his father, and his two sisters. He and his best friend, Aiden, both love to play. But more than anything, Sammy loves karate, something that he learned about from watching Aaron, a little boy who lives in a house near the tree. Sammy dreams of becoming a black belt. But his mother reminds him that squirrels must find nuts and food and always be sure to take good care of their family. Squirrels, after all, don’t do karate.
“Sammy asks his rabbit friend, Brycen, to help him in his quest to learn karate. He practices and practices, but what he doesn’t know is that he may need that skill sooner than he thinks! In this fun and exciting adventure, a brave squirrel learns about relying on friends for help, being brave, and doing what needs to be done – even when you’re scared.”
