In the delightful children’s book “The Nutsome Squirrel,” young readers are introduced to Nutsome, a playful and curious red squirrel who loves to gather acorn nuts. One crisp autumn day, Nutsome decides to bury his acorns in several secret spots, believing they’ll be safe for the winter. However, as winter approaches, Nutsome realises he can’t remember where he hid his precious acorns until it’s too late and he finds a little stem. Unbeknownst to him, he helps to spread the oak tree’s seeds, so they grow into more beautiful trees.

This book has great learning resources, activity sheets and autumn craft ideas to explore the topic further.
