I am inquiring about a book I read years ago, borrowed from a friend, about a young lady who lived in Appalachia, maybe with her grandfather.  She eventually went to town, met a man who ended up taking her to his home in a foreign country.  She had a pet squirrel who showed up at inopportune times.  I think her name was Peaches, and it might be in the title of the book. This was the funniest book I have ever read and would love to own it and read again.  I so hope you can help me.
