"Everyone is nuts about scaredy Squirrel! Scaredy Squirrel would rather stay in his safe and familiar tree, following his carefully planned routine, than risk venturing out into the unknown. Until one day. Something happens that s NOT part of his plan..."

 

His days are routine. Sleep. Wake up. Eat a nut. Look at the view. Eat a nut. Look at the view. Go to sleep. He does not like aliens, germs, killer bees and other things. And he is prepared for any emergency. He has a special kit in case he has to leave the tree. But one day he sees a killer bee and is so excited that he drops his emergency kit. And he needed that emergency as it had his parachute to get safely out of the tree. He jumps to catch the falling kit, but regrets it immediately. Until.... he starts to glide. Scaredy Squirrel is no ordinary squirrel. He is a flying squirrel!
