Cyril was also often busy wondering. He wondered about things like, ‘How does the sky stay up? Do birds fly upside down when I’m not looking?’ The thing he wondered about most was love: ‘What is love? Can I find it and keep it? Do I need it?’ Can you find a special heart-shaped nut hidden somewhere on every page? Do you think Cyril will spot it too? 2 Cyril Squirrel was so curious about love he decided to write a list of questions to ask his friends about it: Q.1 What is love? Q.2 Do you like love? Q.3 Do you know where I can find love? What would your answers to Cyril’s questions be? 4 Cyril asked Carrie Crow, Dan Deer, Ramon Rat and Dafiya Dormouse his questions about love. They all looked thoughtful and then puzzled. They weren’t sure what the answers were, so Cyril felt even more confused. Finally, Dafiya said, ‘Why don’t you go and look for it?’ All the animals nodded and agreed so Cyril decided to do just that! Where do you think Cyril should go to look for love? 6 Early the next day, Cyril had a quick squirrel wash and packed some nuts, a map and a notepad to write down what he discovered along the way. Cyril left a note on his tree: ‘Gone away to find out what love is, back soon.’ 8
