Elinor and her friends look to nature to solve a squishy problem. Elinor, Ari and Olive want to bring a cupcake to school to give to Ms. Mole for her birthday. But the last time Olive brought a cupcake, it got squished in her book bag. So Elinor and her friends need to figure out how to stop the squish and get the cupcake safely to school. They notice some animals, such as turtles and armadillos, are protected by hard shells. Coconuts are, too. Hmm, has this given Elinor a perfect idea for transporting Ms. Mole’s cupcake? Saved by the shell! Kids will be cheering for the friends’ ingenuity - and their cupcake!
