She describes Scaredy Squirrel as “the nutty adventure of a neurotic squirrel who faces his fears of the unknown.”Ĭould you tell us about your path to publication–any sprints or stumbles along the way? She has a college degree in graphic design and a bachelors of arts in graphic design from the Université du Québec à Montréal. But what happens when he’s suddenly forced out of his tree?! A rare funny book about fear. He’s prepared for danger with his antibacterial soap, Band-Aids, and parachuchute. Scaredy Squirrel feels safe in his nut tree–safe from germs, poison ivy, and sharks. ![]() Scaredy Squirrel by Mélanie Watt (Kids Can, 2006). ![]()
