No Backbone! Spiders

Young children will surely be fascinated to discover the wonderful world of spiders in this set of six slim books for readers in the early elementary grades. My own children, and students I have taught, found these eight-legged invertebrates to be a little scary yet absolutely mesmerizing! In addition to showing spiders in their natural environment or in captivity, vivid photographs and accompanying informative text in these books provide specific details of black widows, garden spiders, jumping spiders, trapdoor spiders, and hairy tarantulas.
