Have you ever been bitten by the belly bug bully? If you have, you know it’s a terrible time. Your body temperature rises and you run a fever. Your tummy hurts and grumbles and you can’t even eat. And you certainly cannot play. Sometimes the belly bug bully will get you even when you remember to wash your hands. That’s exactly what happens to the kid in this story. When bitten by the belly bug bully, this child just doesn’t understand why. With hands always washed and Mom always obeyed, it seems like the belly bug bully would have no power. But when the child’s tummy starts to rumble, there’s no mistaking what’s going on. Now the child has two options to choose from: let the belly bug bully ruin the day, or listen to what Mom and the doctor have to say. If it were you, what would you do?
