The farm animals try to divert a busy little spider from spinning her web, but she persists and produces a thing of both beauty and usefulness. The pictures may be felt as well as seen.

Good submitted by keldan315 on July 30, 2019, 9:57pm One is Carle’s simpler books. Good for a younger audience than most of his other work

Another great book submitted by Xris on August 28, 2020, 5:12pm Eric Carle has great illustrations and nice stories for little kids. :)

lesson on persistence submitted by pmysore on August 25, 2021, 7:42am great illustrations by the author that teaches about persistence.

Great illustrations and story submitted by trina05 on June 16, 2023, 11:51am Eric Carle is generally a winner with the kiddos. They particularly enjoy that the spider wouldn't want to do the activities the other animals purpose. But that she gets her snack in the end!
