A globe-spanning introduction to spiders

A missing-spider-child search gives this graphic novel a story framework for exploring spider life around the world. A brother and sister travel from familiar backyard habitats to places such as the Australian Outback, encountering spiders adapted to a wide range of environments. Alongside the adventure, the book introduces science about spiders and examines how their reputation for being frightening contrasts with the helpful roles the description says they play. The comic format brings the subject matter together with a journey, making the book’s focus on spider diversity and natural habitats clear to young readers.
