Summary:
Rabbit and Squirrel are neighbors who never talked to each other but when they notice damage done to their gardens they blame each other of doing the damage to their gardens. They say mean things and do mean things to each other. After they are forced to leave their gardens they still blame
Personal Reactions:
This book reminds me of acting first and thinking later. I think children and adults do this without realizing it. I think anyone of any age can relate to this book.
