"Great photos and plenty of facts make this book a perfect look at spiders for kids...whether they think they like spiders, or not!" - Amazon review
""Exploring My World: Spiders" is exactly the kind of book my elementary students gravitate toward: full of interesting facts and MANY beautiful (or harrowing...depending on your spider radar) photographs.The book has numerous educational features such as a "note to parents and teachers," an "Is it a spider?" chart, a diagram of basic body parts, "Did you know?" sections, and a glossary of spidery terms. I will be adding it to my classroom library!" - Amazon review
About the Book
Based on the new bugs, beasts and creeping things author Valerie Coulman had to learn about after her move to the US, EXPLORING MY WORLD: SPIDERS takes a close-up look at the amazing world of spiders. Filled with charts, questions and answers, and over 70 color photos (most of which were taken in her back yard), Coulman teaches about the fascinating life that can be found in our own back yards.
