Creepy crawlies and eight-legged wonders abound in this classroom favorite and beginner's guide to arachnids. In this book from the acclaimed About... series, educator and author Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what arachnids are, how they live, what they eat, and how they reproduce. With beautifully detailed, realistic paintings, noted wildlife illustrator John Sill introduces readers to a diverse range of arachnids, from the poisonous brown recluse spider to the innocuous giant desert hairy scorpion. An afterword provides more details about each species featured in the interior. Review: More than snakes - I loved sharing this with our grandson who was fascinated with snakes, to show about more animals. Review: My kids love it - Another must have on your child`s bookshelf. Simple, easy to read for the 4 year olds. Must have the entire collection!!!!

Great introduction to arachnids!
Great book, as is the whole series. Good way to introduce young children to spiders without fear/negative mythology. Well done.
