(3) K-3 Illustrated by Patricia J. Wynne. Wadsworth covers the life cycle of the garden spider, beginning with the hatching of hundreds of spiderlings. The text is informative and poetic ("Finally this sister spills out, followed by her siblings, tiny dots almost too small to see. Hungry spiderlings wobble into the welcoming sun"). Close-up mixed-media illustrations provide an additional level of detail. An informative author's note is appended.
