SOPHIA bugs out


Listen Later

Sophia fell in love with insects after a visit to a butterfly conservatory, where a butterfly landed on her and stayed with her. This little buddy on her shoulder opened up a whole world for Sophia.
She was hooked.
In kindergarten, Sophia was bringing grasshoppers, ladybugs and worms to school, to everyone’s delight.
But by first grade, her classmates didn’t think it was so cool anymore.
Things got a whole lot worse before they got better.
In this episode, you’ll hear 11 year-old Sophia bring us her story from her room where she recorded her own voice.
