Their mother nurtures them and teaches them the many skills they will need to survive as stray dogs. But when their mother is taken from them suddenly and too soon, the puppies are forced to make their own way in the world, facing humans both gentle and brutal, busy highways, other animals, and the changing seasons.

    <body><![CDATA[I didn't really expect to like this book much, but I picked up on a whim anyway.  It had two basic strikes against it: (1) It's told from the dog's point of view, which can sometimes be really odd to read and (2) it's &quot;juvenile fiction.&quot;<br/><br/>Well, I was wrong.

    <body><![CDATA[Squirrel the dog tells the story of her life as a stray, with all its hardships and triumphs. If I were 10 years old (or so), maybe I would like this book.
