Deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest lives a quiet old creature named the Wheedle. When humans move into his forests, bringing their loud city noises, Wheedle flees to the rocky peaks of Mount Rainier, and then to the very tip-top of Seattle's Space Needle.

A national bestseller, the beloved Wheedle on the Needle had much of its Seattle-centric storyline stripped from later editions. This glorious 35th anniversary keepsake edition brings back the book's original charm, inviting a new generation of readers to delight in the Wheedle's adventures.
"Armed with nothing but a guild-inducing stare and high-pitched squeal, you demanded Mom read it again. You couldn't get enough of that Wheedle. So you'll be thrilled to know that Sasquatch Books has re-released the much-loved classic Wheedle on the Needle as a special 35th anniversary edition for your own mini bookworms."
