Ever wonder what happens when you catch a "bug?" That is exactly the question that plagues three-year-old Tess. When she doesn't feel well, Tess's imagination runs wild after her Mom tells her she is sick with "a bug." The fun escalates when Tess and Mom ponder what "sick bugs" look like, where they come from and, most importantly, when Tess's sick bug will go home.
