My kids love the Scaredy Squirrel books by Melanie Watt. A few weeks ago, Scaredy Squirrel at the Beach created Moira's first imaginary friend. Yesterday, Scaredy Squirrel helped Ellie to draw this picture:
This is Scaredy Squirrel and the Haunted House. In the picture, Scaredy (he's the one with the very black ears on the left bottom of the page) has to run into the haunted house to become friends with the witch (bottom right hand) who lives with a ghost (top of picture with RARA coming out of her mouth) and a bat (middle of the page--this is a large bat.). I asked Ellie if, after they become friends, they carve a pumpkin and go trick-or-treating. She looked at me like I was nuts.
Check out the Scaredy Squirrel books. They're great, especially for the nervous child.

No joke, we just got our first scaredy book last week on our trip to the library. How cute are they?!
I love the art work! Tell Moira I say "Hi" to her newest friend, Scaredy Squirrel. Maybe he can come help me draw a few pictures too.
AWESOME picture.
p.s. everyone knows squirrels don't go trick or treating. Come on.
the boys love love love books, I am going to have to check them out!
The picture is so cute by the way :)
Cute drawing!
I've never heard of Scaredy Squirrel. We'll have to check those out next time we're at the library.
Reba, was it you who posted about the online geography game?
