Who runs the world? Squirrels!
Fourteen-year-old Doreen Green moved from sunny California to the suburbs of New Jersey. She must start at a new school, make new friends, and continue to hide her fluffy tail. Yep, Doreen has the powers of a squirrel!
After failing at several attempts to find her new BFF, Doreen feels lonely and trapped, like a caged animal. Then one day Doreen uses her extraordinary powers to stop a group of troublemakers from causing mischief in the neighborhood, and her whole life changes. Everyone at school is talking about it! Doreen contemplates becoming a full-fledged Super Hero. And thus, Squirrel Girl is born!
She saves cats from trees, keeps the sidewalks clean, and prevents vandalism. All is well until a real-life Super Villain steps out of the shadows and declares Squirrel Girl his archenemy. Can Doreen balance being a teenager and a Super Hero? Or will she go nuts?

“[In] this upbeat, action-packed adventure…Revasch captures the optimistic tone of the story with an easy lilt in her voice. Her gentle use of character voices perfectly matches the writing style…[and] her seamless incorporation of Doreen Green’s conversational footnotes is a highlight of this audiobook experience. Sands narrates from Tippy-Toe’s perspective. Her voice is similar enough to Revasch’s that it does not interrupt the flow of the narration or create the feeling of a full-cast dramatization. Middle-grade readers will go nuts for more Squirrel Girl!”
