While everyone was busy looking at Crash, Elliot and Twitch raced down the tree. They joined Chip at the top of the jungle gym. When they were all looking down on the party, Chip pointed his little squirrel finger.
“There!” he shouted.
A fluffy squirrel was lying on its side with all the other gifts. It wasn’t moving.
“Why doesn’t he run away?” cried Elliot.
“Maybe they stepped on him. Maybe he’s injured! I don’t know!” said Chip.
Just then the boy with the red hair and all the freckles picked up the squirrel.
“Run away! Run away!” yelled Twitch. But the fluffy squirrel didn’t move.
“That child must have a grip of steel,” said Chip.
Then-to everyone’s surprise-the squirrel began to speak. The boy was pressing the squirrel’s tiny ear. He was making it speak!
“Hello! My name is Mister Nibbles. What’s your name?”
Mister Nibbles has been captured and taken to the yellow house across the street from Elliot’s park! Squirrels aren’t meant to live indoors (not even stuffed ones like Mister Nibbles), so Elliot and his friends come up with a plan to rescue their new friend. Can Elliot, Crash, Chip, and Twitch save Mister Nibbles before it’s too late.
