In today’s episode, picture book author Theresa Dabney tells Dr. Danger what happened in second grade that scarred her so much she wrote a book about it, and how that influenced her teaching. She talks about her book, The Kid Who Was Afraid of Words, illustrated by Summer Morrison, and how the main character uses a special strategy to conquer his fear of big words. We learn some amazing things about the human brain and reading!
