(3) K-3 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. Illustrated by S. D. Schindler. Berger provides a fine introduction to types of spiders, how they spin their webs, and the ways they use their webs. Schindler's detailed illustrations support the text and focus on different features of spiders. Facts about spiders being generally harmless add to the value of the text. A spider web project and two organizational websites are provided for additional information.
