Muted-colour illustrations downplay Scaredy's anxieties and highlight the silliness of his over-the top tactics; playfully varied page designs add liveliness to a lighthearted story that doesn't take itself too seriously . The humour is silly enough that kids with their own scaredy tendencies won't feel preached at, and others will just appreciate the delicious ridiculousness that doesn't keep Scaredy for getting the friend he needs. [A] true original on the picture book scene. Fans will hope for much more from this endearing fellow. Children will identify with Scaredy Squirrel's anxiety about making new friends. They will find his over-the-top fears amusing. [E]bullient artwork, clever layout, and lively text .
