Tuna, a quirky, pack rat squirrel, lives with her husband, Bubble, in a little room under the eaves of the old brick building just outside Prospect Park in Brooklyn, New York. One day, after feeling a knot of acrobats dancing in her tummy, Tuna gives birth to six babies-and soon discovers that one of her babies is not like the others. Brooklyn is purple! The Two-Leg world is a dangerous place, where Brooklyn and his siblings must learn how to survive. As he embarks on expeditions in Prospect Park and listens to lectures about Two-Legs, Brooklyn becomes more independent. He is thrilled when he receives an invitation to attend the park's annual spring celebration-but when Brooklyn is spotted, a hunt for the rare purple squirrel begins. Brooklyn the Squirrel is a tale for children of all ages that proves that being different is not so bad after all.

In her breakthrough generational memoir, Boomer expert Carol Orsborn relates the ups and downs of a tumultuous year spent facing, busting, and ultimately triumphing over the stereotypes of growing old. Along the way, she nurtures a love-starved friend through a doomed affair with a younger man, wrestles with the meaning of an exploding fish, and regains her passion for life at the side of her squirrel-crazed dog, Lucky. The message is as deep as it is engaging. In Carol’s own words, “Plummet into aging, stare mortality in the eye, surrender everything and what else is there left to fear? The way is perilous, danger on all sides. But we can be part of a generation no longer afraid of age. We are becoming, instead, a generation fierce with age.”
