Why Did the Caterpiller Go To the Library? Because He Wanted to Be a Bookworm !!

So we have a new addition to our library pets, A June Bug. My wife found him on our front porch and instead of squishing him, we decided to keep him. When you put it like that, it's a good thing our parents don't look at us like we do bugs... I would lose with those two options (should we squish him... or keep him?).


Aren't bugs just the perfect little pets for a library? I have always thought we needed more fun pets at the library. We have shown off the awesome Tarantula, and the fun red ants and some pretty butterflies... all of which, except the tarantula (kid favorite, mother not approved ;) are all gone. We had some Gerbils.. but they've since passed on, and the birds I wanted to bring would have a hard time with librarians shooshing them all the time. But you see, Bugs don't make noise, and if they die there's a billion more just outside that you can fit into the cage before the poor kids even notice the difference...

So I like this picture. Tarantula vs June Bug. Who will win. Well, we've got big, hairy, extremely scary looking Charlotte (tarantula) in one corner. anf facing off with her, we've got Hiss (June Bug), buggy, yellow, "cute" and completely harmless but well known for it's devestating "hissy fit".... the only thing in the way of this epic fight are the butterflies, always the peace keepers they are.... oh, and yea, some glass is kinda in the way too...
Stay tuned until next time, when we see Armadillo vs. Pill Bug. Who's gonna get Rolled?!
