The Soldier and the Squirrel introduces children to the Purple Heart
through a loving story of a friendship between a newly wounded soldier
and Rocky the squirrel with his backyard friends. This story began as a
blog during my first year in bed after my incident. With much

Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum. Please watch the video
on the About page to learn for the Soldier & Rocky are changing children's
lives.
