Scaredy Squirrel and I share a lot of the same feelings about camping: AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! Love this cautious rodent.
The Scaredy Squirrel stories are funny, but also point out some important truths. In this adventure, Scaredy needs to plug in an extension cord so he can watch a show about camping on TV, because actually going camping is too much bother. The way he over-prepares for everything applies to this trip, too. He plans his route, he thinks of all the dangers he may find, he packs important supplies... And things go wrong - of course! But Scaredy realizes that some things are worth the bother after all.
This would be a great book to use with students to introduce examples of planning a trip or project. There are all sorts of nonfiction text features to use within the context of this picture book. He uses lists, charts, maps, a schedule, a diagram and captions appear on many items.
Scaredy Squirrel reminds me of other timid characters like Wemberly in Kevin Henkes' Wemberly Worried.

I love the Scaredy Squirrel series. Even though the pages can get crazy and we have no idea how to read it properly, we laugh at all the crazy things SS thinks of!
Might be my favorite Scaredy Squirrel yet--I can so relate to the camping thing!
I like this squirrel, but the chaos on each page is a little overwhelming for me and I don't quite see the point of some of the events in the book.
Watching the camping show on TV is enough adventure for a certain anxious squirrel, but it turns out that most oak trees don't have electrical outlets. Will Scaredy's safety precautions be enough to keep him safe until he can get the camping experience he needs?
As usual, the details of Watt's book help it stand out. It's been fun watching Scaredy grow, but I'm sure there will be more books, as there are still a lot more things to be scared of!

Cute story about a squirrel who is too fearful to enjoy camping. Through his adventures with an extension cord, he learns to love the outdoor adventure. This was a great book and I'll be looking for others in this series - I could have used this book as a child!
