Spider: Get Wild! for Little People by Sherry Been

by Barbara Ciletti

If you were a spider, we would call you Spinner! You build your web in the corners of sheds and among the branches of plants and trees. Watchful, careful, and swift, the spider can be as small as an ant or as large as a dinner plate! This first look is especially designed for emerging and early readers, in a fashion that offers a close look at this arachnid. The text-to-self comparisons and colorful illustrations provide the perfect way for youngsters to see how spiders live, eat, climb, build, spin, and protect themselves. The creatures with so many eyes and legs can live in water, in the mountains, build caves with lids, and disguise themselves against even the cleverest of foes. Join in the learning for a read aloud that is positively beastly!
