I thought this was a good book for teaching children about respecting all types of creatures whilst acknowledging the very real fear of creepy crawlies!

I liked it when the spider made all the shiny spider webs and it looked lovely. It was funny when lots and lots and lots of spiders turned up, I would have been scared as well.

This was a little children's book too. There was this family and the spider kept showing them how she could become a great pet. In the end the spider became there pet as they saw the beautiful webs she spun in the garden. The spider then thought they loved spiders so much she brought all her friends into the house and scared the family!
