    About this audiobook

    Mike Nawrocki, cocreator of VeggieTales, is back! In the first installment of this hilarious new chapter-book series, 10-year-old Michael and his friend Justin sneak into the Dead Sea caves near the archaeological dig where Michael’s dad is working. Michael finds two 2,000-year-old squirrels petrified in sea salt. Hijinks ensue as Michael tries to bring them back to the US, hidden in his backpack. What Michael thinks are just cool souvenirs may turn out to be something much more!

    The Dead Sea Squirrels series is humorous, fun, and filled with character-building lessons.

      Dead Sea Squirrels by Mike Nawrocki

      ?A boy finds 2 petrified squirrels in a cave by the Dead Sea. After he smuggles them home, they wake up with memories of when Jesus walked the earth.

      ❤️Why I love it❤️
      -Narrated by the voice of Veggie Tales
      -Sound effects! My kids love when they actually hear the crashes or creaks
      -45 minutes ! A complete story by the time I'm finished bringing groceries home
      -8 of the 11 books are on audio
      -The print books are full of illustrations
      -The 5th grade boys are navigating school and the squirrels are exploring life in the 21st century
      -The books tend to end on a cliffhanger
      -The squirrels, Merle and Pearl, remember similar situations in the Bible and relate them back to present day
      -MY BOYS 7 & 12 beg for these in the car

      ?These are available on Scribd, Audible and Amazon has a bundle deal as well for the paperbacks

      I'm always looking for audio that will be engaging and help instill moral values. We've had some fantastic conversations after listening to these.

      ?? They are currently creating a cartoon series as well ?
