Beware the Spinmeister

The Spider!and The Fly is a ghoulishly fun read in black and white bling! Winner of the 2003 Caldecott Honor and a Ghoulie Tudy rave, this book will thrill, captivate, and enthrall you. Beautifully illustrated by the talented Tony DiTerlizzi, The Spider!and the Fly does what very few books can: it actually takes you to a movie ~ a 1920s, Hollywood, silent movie! Mary Howitt's classic, "danger stranger" tale is given a whole new, cinematic twist! And what a visual spin it is!

So this Halloween, fall for the trick! Walk into this spider's! parlor and have a howlin', dastardly time. After all, as the sly, dapper spider! so fiendishly reminded us, "spiders! are not the only hunters, and bugs are not the only victims" this time of year."

 True, true!

Happy haunting...
