Scaredy Squirrel is exactly the character children need today--a little bit anxious, a lot adorable and totally lovable. Join Scaredy on a hilarious adventure as he learns to brave the doctor for a check-up! Scaredy Squirrel keeps himself in peak physical condition. He exercises, eats a balanced diet, sings opera (to keep his lungs healthy, of course) and brushes his teeth. You might think it's to stay fit, but no--it's all so he can avoid the doctor's office and the dangers presented by other patients! After all, who'd want to expose themselves to the hazards of snapping turtles, squawking parrots and irritable chihuahuas? It's a prescription for disaster! But Scaredy can't avoid the doctor forever, and when he realizes that he needs to make a quick visit to Dr. Vet to get his health certificate, he does whatever it takes to keep safe while he waits at the clinic ... including covering himself in bubble wrap. Yet things don't go according to plan, and Scaredy ends up discovering that his doctor's visit leaves him feeling better than ever!
