Synopsis:

Meet one scarecrow who's scared of everything in this uplifting picture book about fear and friendship that also includes a punch-out Scaredycrow paper doll!

Scaredycrow is a scarecrow with a big problem. He's scared of EVERYTHING! He's scared of the crows that fly by in the day. He's scared of the bats that swoop down in the night. He's scared of the barnyard animals, too. And the feeling is mutual! The crows, the bats, and other barnyard friends are all terribly afraid of the lonely, little scarecrow out in the field.

But one day, when a little mouse named Tiny decides to bring everyone together, everyone learns that there is nothing scary about making new friends.
My thoughts:
This book was full of all kinds of cuteness. I have had baby on the brain recently so I was more than excited to review this. The pictures were adorable and went perfectly with the story. The story had an easy flow and would be very engaging for children as old as 6 or 7.

I recommend this as a fun bedtime story for parents with kids under 7 and to all elementary school librarians.
