Scaredy Squirrrel is scared of tarantulas, bees and germs not to mention Green Martians, sharks and the Unknown. After all, the Unknown can be a scary place for a squirrel. A timetable brings home the repetetive nature of his days, while a chart of pros and cons encourages readers to weigh up the advantages of security and safety against the tedious monotony of a life lived within narrow confines. Then a marauding bee appears and Scaredy Squirrel is catapulted into the wide world. Even timid young readers will not be surprised to discover that the outside world is nowhere near as terrifying in reality as it was in his imagination. Once outside his comfort zone, Scaredy Squirrel discovers unexpected skills too.
