Chipmunk Family

The author observes a family of chipmunks and describes their daily activities, life cycle, and behavior.

Looks at chipmunk burrows and how chipmunks use them to stay safe, store food, hibernate, and raise young.

Every year during autumn, the chipmunk family gets together for a jamboree at Farmer Blys barn in the mountains of Virginia. Theres a lot of fun, food, and, of course, music! Chipmunk families come from all over to dance and party. Grandma and Aunt Clara make their famous walnut cookies and acorn pies, while Emmy Lou sings and Grandpa plays the banjo. But this year, theres a small problem. Sidney the skunk has made his new house under the barn, right where the chipmunks have their jamboree. They certainly dont want to make him mad, or hell stink up the whole place! The chipmunks arent sure what to do. But Farmer Blys old hound dog, Buster, has an idea how to get Sidney out of there. Will it work, or will the chipmunk jamboree be ruined?
