Don’t Wake The Baby Spiders

Description:

What about cute little baby spiders, asleep in their cosy spider web beds?
Join in the skipping and the jumping, the hopping and the splashing in this fun rhyming story book which takes you through the changing seasons as you watch these cute spiders growing up. The little girl loves playing outdoors, but is frightened when she meets a spider. Her daddy is encouraging her to see the spiders in a different light: most baby animals are thought of as cute, so could baby spiders be also cute? I am sure they don’t want to be woken up! As she meets the spiders in spring, summer, autumn and winter, the baby spiders grow. The fear is replaced by inquisitiveness, and by Christmas it is her daddy himself who is a little bit scared, which makes the little girl laugh.

Being scared of spiders is a common fear in young children (and many adults!). Take the first step on the bravery ladder by starting a gentle conversation about the spiders, and you never know, you might just fall in lover with these ones.
