Saving For A Rainy Day is designed to educate young readers about the importance of saving for the future and not relying on others unless it is necessary.
Chompy the chipmunk doesn't want to "worry about tomorrow," so he spends his time eating the nuts he should have been saving for winter. He grows so fat, he cannot enter "his burrow." He knocks on the door of his friend, Cirrel the squirrel, to ask for food and shelter. Cirrel gives him food and shelter and reminds him that he must save for the winter.
About the AuthorAuthor and composer Ruth Pallock knew at age five what she wanted her life's work to be after playing the harmonica on radio station KGER in California. She later started her career by composing songs, writing stories, and writing musical dramas for children.
While traveling the country with her trio, she fell in love with the beauty America offered. Every day brought a new treasure in stories by watching how animals lived and cared for one another in the deserts and forests. Ruth wrote, performed, and recorded 365 children's radio programs for station KCMJ in Palm Springs, California, and now resides in Arizona.
