I doubt she will, unless she reads Terry Pratchett's Discworld books.
In them, the Bursar at the Unseen University (the university at which
most of the disc's wizards are trained) is utterly insane. One of the
wizards came up with the idea that they could make the Bursar sane by
making him halucinate that he was sane, this is done using the dried
extracts of a deadly poisionous frog given to him in pill form.
Hence the bottle of dried frog pills ;))
