Book Introduction
I read the book Scaredy Squirrel at the Beach by Melanie Watt
Explain what the story in the book is about.
This story is about a scared squirrel that is scared of the beach and learns it’s lesson. Here are some lists that Scaredy Squirrel is afraid of: Crowds, sea monsters, packs of pirates, tons of falling coconuts, and last but not least, mobs of lobsters! He makes plans on how to have fun at a beach, but he makes his OWN beach! Scaredy Squirrel grabs sand, a towel, drew a beach on a paper and pretended that it was a whole beach! But he forgot something… He needed ocean sounds! Ocean sounds are sometimes relaxing to hear. So Scaredy Squirrel went to an actual beach, and tried finding seashells…
Ah!! There was a CROWD! Scaredy Squirrel has his number #1 plan, he always plays dead and so he did it! 1 minute later… 2 minutes later.. 1 hour later.. As soon as Scaredy Squirrel woke up, the beach didn’t sound like a that big of a problem. So when he went back to his private beach, he added crowds!
What you think of the book (good and bad)
I think this this book was good.
One reason is that it was nice that Scaredy Squirrel always overcome his fear.
Another reason is about crowds. Crowds used to be Scaredy Squirrel’s fear, but now he likes crowds.
Also, I think I learned a lesson. You don’t have to be scared of things. Just keep trying!
Now you know why I liked the book, Scaredy Squirrel at the Beach
