WE'RE OFF TO THE FOREST is the tale of father and son red squirrels who venture into the forest daily to visit the spot where they planted an acorn the year before. With vivid illustrations bursting with the beautiful reds, oranges, and yellows of autumn, this book is a delight.

This heartwarming picture book is a story about a father and son and their special traditions. The father and son know if they care properly for the acorn they planted, and diligently look after it, then one day it will grow into a big, strong tree that will produce acorns for the whole forest to enjoy. Themes of family, sharing, and the importance of patience are all strong throughout the book.

It is a wholesome and enchanting story with simple language that is perfect for younger readers. I found that the full-page illustrations were detailed and striking. These illustrations feature many adorable animals that come to life on the page.

WE'RE OFF TO THE FOREST shows that even the smallest pleasures can have big impacts, and make the best memories. I gifted this book to my sister for her woodland-themed nursery, and she was delighted with it. We are both looking forward to reading more from this author.
