I love Scaredy Squirrel and his amazing plans. Especially when he ends up re-thinking them :) Always great discussions too about negotiating something new with the kids. Fun to draw maps and plans afterwards as activities.

Loved this book. I think adults will like it better than the kids.

Love that theme that gets tucked in as a P.S. on the very last page:
"Some things are worth the trouble."
"Some things are worth the trouble."

Scaredy Squirrel and I have a similar feeling about camping- it is best to avoid it! As Scaredy tries to get ready to enjoy a camping show on his TV in the comfort of his own home, he discovers that he will have to venture out to plug the TV in, and so the adventure begins. Readers are sure to love going along with Scaredy Squirrel on this adventure in the woods!

If you are familiar with Scaredy Squirrel, you know that he is extremely risk averse so of course, "Scaredy Squirrel never goes camping. He'd rather be comfortable...." As usual, he has some legitimate concerns, but he also fears really random things such as zippers. For the seasoned camper, this book could cause an outbreak of giggles between his carefully thought out wilderness outfit and his elaborate plans. Be prepared to laugh through Scaredy's marvelous escapades. My family has camped out many times so this was great fun. It's my favorite Scaredy book yet.

Scaredy Squirrel is uncomfortable with the idea of camping. In fact, Scardey Squirrel is afraid of encountering skunks, mosquitoes, penguins, and even zippers! Instead of camping, Scardey Squirrel sets up a television so he can watch camping shows. But, he needs to find an electrical outlet and that means going into the woods! Will Scardey Squirrel survive to tell his story around the campfire?
This book is perfect for children who are preparing to go camping and "scary" things that they might encounter. I love Scardey Squirrel books because it shows children that it is okay to be afraid of certain things. Scardey Squirrel books do not work in storytime. The busy photographs make it difficult to interpret with a large (or even small) crowd of kids. Best suited for one on one reading.

Scaredy Squirrel is afraid of camping; his idea of camping is his tv in a tree. But he needs electricity for his tv. He devises a plan to get power by going through the camp ground. There are many dangers along the way, but Scaredy learns that camping might not be so bad after all. Lovely story, wonderful illustrations. I received a copy of this book through netgalley.
