Scaredy Squirrel by Mélanie Watt

5.0

Sometimes I wonder if there are certain children's books that pose as "picture books"... but are really secretly intended for us "big kids" and are only trying to get a giggle out of us. Because that is exactly what happened when all of us in the staff here at our library got a hold of this gem!

Written perhaps for a more detail-oriented crowd, Scaredy Squirrel is the tale of a most cautious, attentive squirrel who comes complete with his own set of fears, an affinity for weighing pros and cons, an appreciation for schedules and routines, as well as a fondness for preparedness action plans and emergency kits.

Scaredy's story is one that can be appreciated by those of us who have been apprehensive (or perhaps even a little fearful!) about change and who despite our fears, have embraced the possibilities... and the potential room for change that these can bring.
