Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk by David Sedaris can best be described as a book of modern Aesop fables. It features all of the requisite talking animals-dogs, mice, bears, sheep, and yes squirrels and chipmunks-learning valuable life lessons a little too late. Very, very funny and thought provoking too, though not for the weak of heart. There are some gruesome scenes.
