A little boy in my class got a book all about bugs out of the library. One of the little girls was terrified of the book. She was hiding behind me and almost crying. We talked about how they were only pages in a book, and that they couldn't hurt her. It is okay to be scared sometimes, but to be scared of a book is kinda silly.

This is what she said to me:

"Miss English, bugs really scare me. You know why? They scare me because they have more legs than I do. Horses, dogs, cows, and cats.....they just stand on their hands."
