"To squish, or not to squish?

What would you do if the ant you were about to step on looked up and started talking? Would you stop and listen? What if your friends saw you hesitate? Originally a song by a father-daughter team, this conversation between two creatures, large and small, is bound to inspire important discussions about tolerance, bullying, peer pressure, and compassion. It might even answer that classic childhood question- To squish or not to squish?

The perfect tool to help inspire compassion in our world's

youth.""

-Jane Goodall, world-renowned primatologist

A hilarious picture book that poses the eternal question- To squish or not to squish? With a meaningful message

about the importance of caring for creatures big and small, this is a perfect book for Earth Day and year round.

What would you do if the ant you were about to step on looked up and

started talking? Would you stop and listen? That's what happens in this funny, thought-provoking book. First composed as a

song by a father-daughter team, this suprising conversation between a tiny

ant and a little girl is sure to inspire discussions about caring,

kindness, and respect for both animals and humans."
