But for Rat, it's all screams and no nuts ... until, he comes up with a plan to solve his problem: Be more squirrel-ish! But how to do that? Could the problem be the rat-ish way he sits? Nope. Sitting up like a squirrel still elicits screams. What if he paper clips his ears so they look smaller, like a squirrel's? Ack! The screaming continues. Finally, inspiration strikes. The problem is his tail! Rat gets to work, pulling out his crafting supplies and creating squirrel-ish tail prototypes. But none of them are quite right ... one is too puffy, one too plant-y, and another too seagull-friendly! One made of spaghetti sticks seems perfect, until it rains. Just when Rat is ready to give up, the solution hits him (literally) over the head. Broom straws! Having a squirrel-ish tail is everything he dreamed--he can walk in the grass without anybody screaming, and he's being offered free nuts! But when all of the dogs in the park notice his new look too, Rat suddenly understands why squirrels are always scampering and decides he prefers to stick to his own perfectly good rat tail. This hilarious tale explores the feeling that the grass is always greener for someone else, and sends a gentle reminder about the joy of being true to yourself."--  |c Provided by publisher.
