Here at Hug a Bug publishing we know that you want to help your child overcome their fear of “creepy crawlies.” In order to do that, you can’t simply say, ‘Don’t be scared!,’ especially when you let ‘eeks!’ or a yelp escape every time you see a spider.

You need a fun and engaging way to shine a new light on bugs and insects. The problem is that you aren’t sure how to teach your kids bug compassion, without sounding too hypocritical.

We believe all creatures have a place on earth, and deserve respect and understanding. We know how hard it can be for kids to get past their initial fear of bugs, which is why we wrote this series.
