Summary:
YOUNG READERS WILL LOVE this first glimpse into the creepy, crawly,
complex world of spiders, scorpions, mites, and ticks in this latest
title in the About... series. Author Cathryn Sill explains in
easy-to-understand language what arachnids are, how they live, what
they eat, and how they reproduce. Wildlife painter John Sills'
detailed realistic illustrations reflect the diversity of the
arachnid population--from the poisonous Brown Recluse Spider to the
innocuous Giant Desert Hairy Scorpion--and present each in its
natural habitat. An appendix, which provides further detail on the
arachnids portrayed, will inspire young readers to learn more about
these fascinating, often misunderstood creatures.
