The Dead Sea Squirrels are ALIVE!!!
Michael can't leave Merle and Pearl Squirrel home alone to be discovered by his parents (or the cat), so the squirrels stow away in his backpack. At school, they experience the wonders of a 21st-century 5th-grade classroom and meet Edgar, the bully who's been after Michael and his friend Justin for years. Can Merle and Pearl use ancient wisdom learned from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount to help Michael face his enemy? Or will Michael get himself into a stinky situation when he tries to take care of the problem his own way?
