Synopsis

Marty Muskrat is a scaredy-rat. He's scared riding bikes, he's scared climbing trees and he's scared swinging on ropes. When Marty's class goes to Funland Park, his friends help him discover there are only Three Kinds of Scared - and he can conquer every one! Full of gentle humour and warmth, the original version of this story was written by the late F. N. Monjo, the acclaimed American author of over twenty books for children. His son, Justin, who revised and refined the text, feels a special bond with this story which is in part about a young boy trying to win his father's approval. The illustrations by Peter Viska in delicious retro colours have been created using a combination of black ink and electronic animation techniques.
