It's common to be afraid of something you can't see but you know is there, like a mouse or rat hiding in your house. Having a phobia takes these fears a step further; they start to interfere with daily life. Set to the backdrop of a museum collection, this book takes readers into the minds of those terrified of snakes, sharks, and even animal skin and fur. Including names and descriptions of many kinds of animal phobias as well as the physiological responses those suffering from phobias may experience, this narrative is high-interest, incredibly interesting, and sometimes a bit creepy.
