In this fifth entry in the Dead Sea Squirrels series, ancient talking squirrels Merle and Pearl, who were salted and preserved in a cave for centuries, have now found a home with 10-year-old Michael Gomez and his family. After establishing a life in the 21st century, Merle and Pearl come to realize they can get into as many adventures and difficult situations now as they did in the past. This book features run-ins with other local squirrels and Michael's family cat as well as trouble at Michael's school when Merle squirms his way out of Michael's backpack. Whenever Merle and Pearl find themselves in a pickle, Pearl refers to God's blessings and reminds Merle of God's teachings. Even as they laugh at the squirrels' shenanigans, readers will absorb the lessons to be kind and forgiving to family, friends, and even enemies, following God's will. The illustrations are appropriately humorous (one of Pearl in a bathrobe and bunny slippers, holding a cup of tea, is particularly funny), and they depict an interracial Gomez family; Michael, his dad, and his sister have somewhat darker skin than does Michael's mother. A cliffhanger whets readers' appetites for the next book, <i>Whirly Squirrelies</i>, which publishes simultaneously. A fun, action-packed romp with a lesson about living out God's messages folded in.
