What happens when something that feels scary turns into something beautiful?
In I Don't Like Bugs, a young child is convinced that bugs are yucky, creepy, and best avoided. From crawling critters to buzzing wings, every encounter brings big feelings and strong reactions. But as the story unfolds, curiosity slowly replaces fear, and the child learns an important lesson: sometimes the things we don't like at first can surprise us when we give them a chance.
This gentle, engaging story helps young readers explore emotions like fear, disgust, curiosity, and bravery in a relatable way. With expressive illustrations and simple language, I Don't Like Bugs encourages children to try new things, talk about their feelings, and understand that growth often begins with one small step.
Perfect for:
PreK-3 classrooms
School counseling and SEL lessons
Parents teaching emotional awareness and resilience
Children learning to face fears and embrace change
I Don't Like Bugs is a heartwarming reminder that trying something new-even when it feels uncomfortable-can lead to beautiful discoveries.
