This is #4 in the Animal Inn series.
Scaredy Cat is the fourth book in a series of 12 books - about the Taylor Family of Essex, Pennsylvania. Dr. Theodore Taylor is a vet. He has 3 children - Valentine (Val or Vallie - who wants to be a veterinarian - who is a 13 year old girl) - Erin (who is 11 and wants to be a famous ballerina) - and Teddy (who is 8). These books follow their adventures.
In this book Teddy gets a black eye at school. The person who punched him in the eye is a young girl, Philomena Sparks (called Sparky). Dr Taylor and Mrs Sparks work to resolve the differences between the two children.
In between - there are a wide variety of animals to be taken care. It was really a cute book.
