A Daughter for Christmas (2010)
“I never knew there were that many germs on common things.” Taylor fastened her seat belt in Max’s Mustang after science class the following week.
“Most of the germs are harmless. Some people think we are too obsessed with cleanliness, that children don’t build up their immunities like we used to.” Max pulled out of his parking space at his office.
“What do you think?”
“I’m usually a middle-of-the-road kind of guy. Not extreme on either side of the argument. That’s why we’re studying germs this ...week and learning when and where to be more careful. Especially with flu season here.”
“It was weird but fun.”
“Weird?”
“I’ve never seen a germ under a microscope. I never thought of it as moving around.”
“Yeah, they are a life-form. If you need any help on your presentation about Louis Pasteur, I can help.”
“That probably wouldn’t be fair since you’re the teacher. I wouldn’t want anyone to accuse me of being a teacher’s pet. Believe me, I’ve never been one.”MoreLess
