Told in wobbly diary entries, this is the daily life of a young spider who happens to think, joke and worry like any schoolkid. He goes to class, hangs around with a fly and a worm for best friends, frets about giant feet and roaring vacuum cleaners, and slowly learns the ropes of web-spinning and being small in a very big world. Doreen Cronin writes it with deadpan humor, and Harry Bliss fills the margins with sly cartoon detail. A follow-up to Diary of a Worm, it turns a creepy-crawly into a relatable, funny narrator that young readers root for.
