Scaredy Squirrel is back and ready for Halloween! He is fully prepared to make sure Halloween is cute and fun, and NOT scary. And just in case – he’s thought of everything: fans to ward of ghosts, garlic for vampires, and pepperoni for werewolves. Scaredy is begrudgingly convinced to go trick-or-treating with his friends (if it weren’t for the caramel apples – he would not go). On their outing, they are chased by a pepperoni loving cat throughout the neighborhood. And Scaredy finds out that much of what he was afraid of, isn’t so scary after all. This seasonal sequel is just as fun as the original, and would make a great addition to any graphic novel collection. This series in general could be a good tool for caregivers working through child fears and anxieties. The illustrations are simple, cute, and fitting of the story. Recommended for ages 6-8 (1st to 3rd Grade).
