Remember when you meet your friend for the first time? Scaredy Squirrel is going through that now! Scaredy Squirrel is a squirrel who has never really had time for friends. All he did was protect himself from being bitten or having an environment full of germs. He is basically a clean freak and never allowed one single germ to cross his house. Until he met him…
It was just a regular day for Scaredy Squirrel, polishing and sweeping everything. When he was gonna clean the window, he saw the most interesting thing he has ever seen in his entire life. A goldfish. Scaredy Squirrel immediately looked at it and got an idea. He was gonna befriend it. It was the only friend Scaredy Squirrel can befriend, no germs, won’t be able to bite him and is quiet. Scaredy Squirrel came up with a plan and decided that he was gonna meet it but not forgetting that he doesn’t want to get bitten. He was gonna avoid the rabbits, the beavers, walruses and….Godzilla?
He got everything he needed, lemonade, a name tag, Scaredy’s Risk Test, pine scents and gloves. When he goes outside, he encounters the most terrifying animal that he has ever seen…..
Scaredy Squirrel once again has a adventure and he has unexpected turns but ends up making it good. When I read it, it made me think and I thought he was gonna have a conflict with the goldfish but it was different than the actual result. This book is recommended for early readers and people who are older. Remember, stay germ-free!
