This is a nonfiction book about spiders written in Spanish and English. It is a book my sister is using to teach a rainforest unit to her Spanish speaking kindergarten class. I would use it in my future classroom. The pictures of spiders were graphic and realistic, kinda gross if you don't like insects.

My 7 year old son recently borrowed this book from his school library.

It describes what spiders are, what they look like, and where they live. It has easy read text and colorful photographs for young readers. Non-fiction.
