Summary: This is a book about what it is like to be a spider. It talks about how he goes to school and learn that spiders are not insects. You learn that he best friend is a fly. It goes day be day over his life and explaining different things that he did. Also it talks about his grandpa. He talks about he can't have fly come over to play at his house because he gets stuck in the web.
Reaction: This book was really funny. He was doing things that humans would do, like going to the park and not being able to play on the toys cause he was to small. Also how he goes over to spend the night at a friends house and they are eating something that he doesn't like. This was just a funny book full of funny diary entry that just make you laugh. Also the pictures are really fun and really help tell and describe the story that is being written. They are well done and you can always find something to laugh at some where in the pictures.
Potential Problems: None
Recommendation: I would recommend this for those trying to urge their kids to keep a journal and she it to them how fun it can be. Also it would be a great writing tool with the journal to have children read this and want to write their own diary for them selves and to share with other people. It is a fun book that gives you fun story and also helps you to understand spider. For instance did any one know that a spider looses his skin?
