A slow down in the economy has forced Harold (Seedman) Finebender to consider leaving Finebruner’s Fine Writing Instruments and taking a job as a sales representative for Ben’s Pens. Sid, the community trauma counselor, thinks he needs more excitement in his life. Sparky, the technical genius, is having trouble concentrating since Liz, his attractive female assistant, has come to work in his lab. And, just when things in the community start to settle down, Roscoe has finally had enough bickering and quits his job as the chairman of the Committee for the Protection of Neighborhood Resources. That’s just part of the excitement in Squirrel’s Night Out, the fourth book in The Squirrel Chronicles series.
