"Bannertail: The Story of a Graysquirrel" by Ernest Thompson Seton is a woodland novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows the life of Bannertail, a young gray squirrel, who is orphaned and raised by a cat after his mother is killed. The narrative explores Bannertail's adventures, growth, and the challenges he faces in the wild, all while highlighting various themes related to animal behavior and survival instincts. The opening of the story introduces Bannertail as a foundling squirrel, whose life begins with tragedy when a boy kills his mother and siblings. After the boy takes him home, Bannertail is adopted by a cat and begins to grow up under her care. As he plays and discovers the world around him, he learns the ways of his squirrel heritage through instinct, even as he is shaped by his unusual upbringing. The narrative paints a vivid picture of the rustic setting and gives insight into how Bannertail navigates the early stages of his life, setting the stage for the adventures and lessons that will follow in his journey.
