Welcome to Squirrel Charades!

About the book

Squirrel Charades is a new take on the classic game of Charades, but with red squirrels!

The book contains 40 full-colour puzzle photographs, each containing clues to solve that will lead to the name of a film, TV show, book, etc.

The example on the front cover (see photo above) is a book, film and song with four words. See the book for the answer!

There are two kinds of puzzle in the book: over the page from each photo are hints hidden in a grid of letters (see example below)- try to find all the hints!

Puzzles are broken into 4 rounds of 10 each. Between the rounds are information on red squirrels, more photos, and how you can support these beautiful creatures.

Answers to all puzzles are at the back.

This is a unique gift for puzzlers in your life who want something a little bit different!

From the author Shirley Teggin:

I took the photos during the Covid lockdowns and sent them to friends and family to help keep spirits up. Everyone loved the photos and encouraged me to turn them into a book even if it is a bit mad. Spending time photographing these beautiful creatures was a true joy. I wanted to help them by raising awareness of why they are endangered, as well as supporting the hard work of Penrith and District Red Squirrel Group, who will receive 10% of the publishing profits.
