October Children's Book: The Spider and The Fly




Good Day!

Today I wanted to review a fun book for your children/students called The Spider and The Fly by Mary Howitt. This book is about an evil spider and his cunning plan to capture such a sweet lady fly in his web. It starts out with the spider meeting the fly and how he sneakily lets the fly into his home clothed as a sweet spider. The innocent fly is unsure at first, but decides to trust the spider because of her naiveness. This book was a Caldecott award winner and the illustrations are electrifyingly beautiful. You can teach a lesson to your students/children about not to believe everything that a person says, especially people that they don't know. This book is a perfect October read. You won't regret picking it up
