Overview

When Harrison the Traveling Squirrel discovers a cigar box filled with old photographs, letters, and forgotten memories hidden beneath his tree in Woodbine, Iowa, he sets out on a journey across the small towns of Harrison County to uncover the stories inside. Traveling through Woodbine, Logan, Dunlap, and Missouri Valley, Harrison explores historic railroad depots, courthouse squares, county fairs, veterans memorials, brick streets along the Lincoln Highway, and the people who helped shape America's heartland. Along the way, he learns that history is not only found in museums or textbooks, but in the lives of ordinary people, family traditions, community pride, and the memories passed from one generation to the next. Blending fiction with real pieces of local history, Harrison the Traveling Squirrel: A Journey Through the Heart of Iowa is a warm and nostalgic celebration of small-town America, honoring the veterans, families, workers, and storytellers whose lives helped build the communities we call home. Created in honor of America's 250th anniversary, this richly illustrated story encourages readers of all ages to explore their own hometown histories, listen to the stories of others, and remember that even the quietest stories are worth preserving.
