When a Bug Sneezes

What do bugs reach for, when they start to sneeze? They use an outdoor tissue, and blow their noses on the leaves. One day while looking through my super size spyglass, I saw a little snail. I think he must have had a cold, because he left a sticky trail! You will never, ever have to give a tissue to a bug. Because if one is in your house, he'd rather use your mother's rug.
