In the year 1214, a baby squirrel falls from the nest and lands in
the passing saddlebag of a 13-year-old boy. Still blind, deaf,
hairless and unable to eat solid food, there is little hope for
Puttermunch's survival. Moved by the persistent pleading of his
distraught mother, a selection of five squirrels set out to find
Puttermunch, launching a perilous and life-altering journey on the
Way of St. James in Spain. The road is fraught with failure for
Billowtail, Tippy, Nip, Sugarcoat and Sir Sniff, until these
well-meaning tree squirrels, born to be loners and hoarders, learn
the value of community and self-sacrifice.
