(4) K-3 Spiders series. These books for beginning readers introduce four species of spiders. The simple texts (briefly) discuss habitat, physical features, and behavior. The large, colorful photographs are eye-catching, but unfortunately parts of the pictures are frequently lost in the gutters. These are adequate first science books. Glos., ind. Review includes these Spiders titles: Bird-Eating Spiders, Jumping Spiders, Tarantula Spiders, and Wolf Spiders.
