Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Scaredy Squirrel (known as Frisson l'écureuil in French) is an award-winning series of very simple picture books aimed at very small children and created by Quebec author Mélanie Watt, who is also known for creating Chester the Cat. It's about a nervous squirrel named Scaredy who is afraid of nearly everything and lives his life through extremely intricate and meticulous planning. However, Scaredy often finds that things don't go his way. But because of the breaks from his routines and expectations, in the end he always learns something new, important, and exciting that makes him a better person, er, squirrel.There were originally six picture books in the Scaredy Squirrel series published between 2006 and 2011, as well as two holiday-themed activity books featuring the character. In 2021 however, for the character's fifteenth anniversary, Mélanie Watt brought back Scaredy Squirrel for a completely new graphic novel. The Scaredy Squirrel books are:Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) Scaredy Squirrel (2006) Scaredy Squirrel Makes a Friend (2007) Scaredy Squirrel at the Beach (2008) Scaredy Squirrel at Night (2009) Scaredy Squirrel Has a Birthday Party (2011) Scaredy Squirrel Prepares For Christmas (2012) Scaredy Squirrel Goes Camping (2013) Scaredy Squirrel Prepares For Halloween (2013) Scaredy Squirrel in a Nutshell (2021)In 2011, Nelvana made an Animated Adaptation of the books that aired on YTV and Cartoon Network (later Qubo) for 52 episodes. Although the cartoon is VERY In Name Only to the point of sharing literally nothing in common with the books beyond the title character's name, Mélanie Watt served as a creative consultant for the series. Tropes for the TV show version can be found here.

Lovable Coward: Scaredy is always afraid of the worst possible outcomes and gets frightened very easily, but is nonetheless a lovable and good-natured soul.

Character Development: In the first book, Scaredy is so terrified of everything that he won't even leave his tree. He gets over it by the end of the story however, and afterwards, most of the other books involve him having adventures outdoors.

Super OCD: Scaredy's defining trait asides from his worrywart personality. He lives by a highly regimented daily routine and plans everything down as meticulously as he can, and dislikes unpredictability.
