Lonely scarecrow Scotch, in his tartan kilt, discovers his true calling as a "Scare-go" who banishes children's fears instead of birds. On his first mission, he comforts a frightened girl with kindness and a magical tartan talisman that "makes the scare go away." This heartwarming debut, with soft countryside illustrations and a real fabric swatch, reassures anxious kids that bravery starts with a hug.
