Scratches

After Missy hears scratches in the living room, she discovers a scared little squirrel, who has fallen down the chimney and is running around the room. When she imagines what the squirrel is feeling, she becomes that squirrel and explores the world around the house as that squirrel. Later, after she lets the squirrel out, that becomes her secret.
