Overview
Phobias extend beyond the fear of things many people say they're afraid of, like spiders or snakes. Some suffer from hippophobia, which is the fear of horses. Or they may have an intense fear of beards, or pogonophobia. Whatever phobia you can imagine, it's found in this sometimes creepy, unbelievable, and true-to-life set. Curious readers learn how these phobias may develop and manifest in daily life. Combined with scientific explanations for the reactions of fear, this set will engage both the fearful and the fearless. Features include: Ten phobias are explained in each book. Science content including discussion of the nervous system complements science curricula. Sidebars and fact boxes supply historical and pop culture context.
