Spider Books

Bitsy Spider moves into a new house and wants to have a housewarming party. Not sure what makes a fun party, Bitsy decides to ask her friends. Of course, each one has a different idea, which only leaves Bitsy more confused. Since she isn't good at any of the things her friends suggested would make a fun party, Bitsy decides to give up and cancel the party. Bitsy's friends come to the rescue and a wonderful time is had by all.

This is a wonderfully delightful, beautifully illustrated story. My 11 yr. old little girl loved it, so it's not just for smaller kids. And it has a moral, too! Each person has special gifts and when we all use our gifts to help each other, life can be fun for all of us. A story all little kids should have on their bookshelf.

This book not only gives children a valuable lesson in exploration but in the end, they are treated to a special time that Bonnie has with her mother. Like all mother's, Bonnie's wanted her to be adventurous and explore her world. But, as in real life, there are always dangers to be aware of.
This book is beautifully illustrated by Carey A. Norby and we hope it is the first of many for her.

This book is sure to delight both parents and children alike. Richard Michelson's whimsical poems coupled with fantastic illustrations by Leonard Baskin combine to make this book entertaining, educational and fun. Each fly receives dual treatment by the author and illustrator. First, a painting of the fly viewed through a child's literal eye matched with a humorous poem, followed by a factual monograph and technical sketch of the fly. Michelson and Baskin have concocted a brilliant collection of flies, real or otherwise.

This book was a real treat to read. It was informative without being pedantic, written in language understandable for the interested layman. There are lots of color photographs and drawings that nicely supplement the text. Spider and scorpion courtship, mating, digestion, respiration, hunting, and web spinning are all discussed. A fine book for anyone who is fascinated by these creatures.

We have the book in english, our household is bilingual. My daughter loves both versions. A great addition to any library...

Great stickers. My son just loved sticking them on everything.

this book glance is the most gayest koolest book i have ever read...

My 7 month old son loves this book! It's his favorite book to look at. He'll sit on the floor (ignore his toys), stare at this book, open and close the cover and flip the pages. No other book (besides Salina Yoon's Sea Creatures) or toy holds his attention like this book.

Very good reference book for children. Easy to read and look up with good information.

My son loves this series, as well as any other thing that creeps, crawls or goes bump in the night. Good 1950's sci-fi-like fun for ages 8 to 15.
