The Dead Sea Squirrels Based on the book series by Mike Nawrocki, Dead Sea Squirrels is the latest offering from the kid-focused, Christian streaming service Minno. Each episode features a character (usually Michael or Merle) getting into some sort of trouble or hardship because of his or her bad choices. But then theyre reminded of stories from the Bible (usually narrated by Pearl) to help them find the right way to proceed.
