This is the Diary of a Spider and everyday is a new day. It takes you though things that happen in the spiders life. Spider's best friend is a fly, things are different now then they used to be. In gym class they learn how to catch wind so they can travel to far away places and just like us, sometimes they have to make flash cards to help learn. There are somethings that we do for fun that dont work for spiders, but they have their own way of fun. They learn that they need to watch out for vacuums "stop, drop, and run". Practice makes perfect, so its good to practice things many times, so you wont get eaten by the vacuum. Spiders stick up for their friends when other insects hurt their feelings. Sometimes it is hard having a fly for a best friend and having her come over to play, she gets stuck in the web. It comes to a time in every spiders life when they can know the secerit to a long life, don't fall asleep in a shoe. Everyone has fears, some things that are afraid of spiders are: Parents of flys that are best friends with spiders, Tiny bugs, and people..using water foutins at the park. Spiders have fears too, daddy long legs (they are HUGE) vacuums, and people with big feet. Not all spiders bite and everyone can get along with them if they just give them a chance.
I would recommend this book to anyone. This is a cute book and it cna help teach how to keep a diary and also get a look into a spiders life.
There isn't anything wrong with this book. I have a huge fear of spiders and am the biggest arachnophobe that you will ever meet and I still read this book, but if you can't even take pictures of spiders, this book would not be fore you.
I thought this was a way cute book. It teaches a few different things and is fun and enjoyable. I read it to my roommates and we all had a good laugh, at how cute it is.
