Charlie and I wanted to share another addition to our Christmas Gift Guide 2025: Secret Life of Squirrels Wall Calendar 2026 By Nancy Rose By Workman Calendars we received in exchange for this review.
David has always loved watching Squirrels play in the yard which drives David’s mom up the wall because they like to annoy her Dog and eat her Flowers. Charlie thought if we gave Granny Sherry this calendar she could see Squirrels are cute.
Here and David would be able to bond over the pictures in the calendar and she would have a safe place to write down all the doctors appointments Dad and her have. Or a place to track what she has eaten and her diabetes readings.
The calendar is inspired by Nancy Rose’s nutty books we haven’t heard of but can’t wait to check out. I wis you could see everything the Squirrels are doing on the calendar including making a Snowman and taking a bath.
The Secret Life of Squirrels like I said earlier is created by singular artist Nancy Rose who handcrafts finely handcrafted miniature scenes making all the props herself. Then she hides them outside and hides Nuts in the props.
Then she waits behind her camera. And the Squirrels come. Then Nancy snaps photos without photooshop. She captures 12 scenes of Squirrels acting just like humans playing chess, repairing bikes and so much more. I’m not going to tell you what because you need to pick up a copy of the funny unique and one of a kind calendar The Secret Life of Squirrels.
