      This story's title had attracted me and had draw my attention to it. I could imagine what it was about to discuss and how scary it was. And so it didn't disappointed me. It was an excellent work as the words it used was recondite. This story was about a girl, Clara Teh's weird experience. She had sat beside a girl who likes holding spiders, handling bees and playing with ants. Beside her curiosity, she had started to investigate the girl beside her. As she started to know more about her, she found that she had more strange thing than the inserts. So, she and her friends followed the strange girl to her house and found even more weird things. Althought it had a happy ending, it still a great story to me.
