Summary:
Scaredy Squirrel: Scaredy Squirrel never leaves his nut tree. It's way to dangerous out there! Day after day he watches and waits, and waits and watches, until one day ... his worst nightmare comes true! Scaredy Squirrel suddenly finds himself out of his tree. As he leaps into the unknown, he discovers something really uplifting and surprising about himself. Officer Buckle & Gloria: Officer Buckle knows more about safety than anyone in the town of Napville. But whenever he tries to share his safety tips, nobody listens -- until the day the Napville Police Department buys a police dog named Gloria, who has her own way of demonstrating safety tips. Dot the fire dog: Dot the fire dog and her firefighter friends teach children just what to do when the alarm bell rings at the fire station, and shares her fire safety tips too.
