Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk was my first experience with Sedaris' fiction. I was a little concerned that I would not like it as much as his other work. As it turns out, I loved this! It's cute and short novel that features many stories about animals in different human situation. Each story is very funny, interesting, and most of them had a moral that you could gather from them. 
 I enjoyed so many of them, but my favorite has to be the Squirrel and the Chipmunk. In this story, a chipmunk is dating a squirrel, and that's very controversial to the other chipmunks. 
 (view spoiler)[ One day, the squirrel tells her that he likes jazz music. The chipmunk has no idea what this is, so she goes around talking to all of the other chipmunks asking what it could be. Because they don't like squirrels, they tell her so many horrible things, and she ends up breaking it off with him. The story ends with her marry a chipmunk and eventually finding out what jazz really is from one of her sons. The story ends with a really cute quote, that I think really shows Sedaris' writing style and the way he can wrap up his stories very nicely. 
 "When her muzzle grew more white than brown, the chipmunk forgot that she and the squirrel had had nothing to talk about. She forgot the definition of 'jazz' as well and came to think of it as every beautiful thing she had ever failed to appreciate: the taste of warm rain; the smell of a baby; the din of a swollen river, rushing past her tree and onward to infinity."
