The Dead Sea Squirrels are alive! In book 2 of Mike Nawrocki’s hilarious new series, the two petrified squirrels Michael brought home from Israel are awake and ready to dive into the 21st century.

Missteps and misadventures abound as Merle and Pearl help Michael and his friends confront a bully, using lessons from the Sermon on the Mount.

From the Back Cover

The Dead Sea Squirrels are ALIVE!!!
Michael can’t leave Merle and Pearl Squirrel home alone to be discovered by his parents (or the cat), so the squirrels stow away in his backpack. At school, they experience the wonders of a 21st-century 5th-grade classroom and meet Edgar, the bully who’s been after Michael and his friend Justin for years. Can Merle and Pearl use ancient wisdom learned from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount to help Michael face his enemy? Or will Michael get himself into a stinky situation when he tries to take care of the problem his own way?

Even funnier than the first book, this episode brings in a moral dilemma as well as tons of action. I liked book two of the Dead Sea Squirrels series even better than the first. Keep them coming!

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST kid series EVER!!!

This book series is ADORABLE and FUNNY! The characters are so kind, and he learns from them when the main character makes mistakes. Merle and Pearl are the cutest squirrels whose sweet personalities make the story perfect for kids. My kids beg to read this book before bed. Our local library added this series to their shelves when I requested it, and the Librarians all said how cute they think it is. We still bought the series because my kids enjoy reading it so much. It is funny and sweet! You should definitely try this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun story with a more subtle lesson

I loved reading this aloud to my kindergarten class. They enjoyed it and asked repeatedly for me to continue! It was nice to read a kids book that lacked the sassy attitudes and rebellious nature of so many books right now. The kids in the story really pushed some boundaries, but they knew they weren't honoring God or their parents and they wrestled with their own choices. We have the first two books.

My 8 year old loves these books. He reads them within 2 hours every time he gets a new one. From what he's shared with me about the books they have good content while still being a bit silly and lighthearted to keep the kids interested.

So thankful to stumble upon this series. My boys love a ridiculous funny story but we couldn't take much more Underpants books. These are hilarious without losing morals. They're short and easy to read with a lot of graphics, probably best for 8 to 10 year olds but I've seen my almost 12 year old reading and laughing as well.
