Horrible Harry Moves Up to Third Grade

We read Horrible Harry Moves Up to Third Grade by Suzy Kline. One of the themes in this book was courage. Doug faced his fear of mines by going into one on his class field trip to the Copper Mine. Can you  make a connection (Text to Text or Text to Self) to this book with the theme of courage?

i think that it is a good thing for Doug to face his fears!! that reminds me of a face fear thing at disney. when i was in my early 6 years i went to disney. i was afarid to drop down really fast and high and so i decided to face my fears and do the Hollywood Tower Of Terror, like Doug went into the mine!! i was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo scared i almoest wet my pants! i know doug was scared too he might had wet himself too. i dont think he would wet himself because he is matoure. so we got in our car and we started in space then ghosts. here comes the BAD part there they open the windows...5...4... 3...2...1...DROP 70 feet high to the ground again but 50 feet then it was over! finally that DEATH RIDE was OVER! well i did not like it but that is when i had to face my fears!!! that was a... DEATH RIDE to me because i was small. but it was an adventure too. i think it was an adventure for doug.

It was fun learning about how Doug faced his mine fears.One time when I was little and me and my family was at Walt Disney World.My mom and dad helped me throw the dinosaur ride.The dino ride was pretty fun even though I was scared at first like Doug.
