We see how hard it is for a spider to make a web, and why he makes his web. This book illustrates completing a project and the rewards of a job well done. ( )A day in the life of a spider is a very very busy day! She works hard spinning her web all day. When people ask her do things, she only continues spinning her web. The repeatitive text makes it easy for students to read and develop concept of word. The reading level for this book is 1.3. For more information about this author, parents and teachers should visit www.eric-carle.com. This beautifully illustrated book is great for first graders. There is so much repetition that they can be successful readers. A spider blows in the wind onto a fence post near a farm yard. Here the spider begins to spin a web. Many different farm animals come up to the spider and ask him to do things, but it always says, "The spider didn't answer. She was very busy spinning her web." This happens until the spider catches the fly that the rooster was trying to catch. Then, it becomes late and the spider falls asleep after a very busy day. http://www.eric-carle.com/home.html Fantastic website with biography, list of books, videos, picture gallery, a blog and news! GREAT BOOK!! I love this book and remember loving it when I was young. About a spider that spins her web and nothing can stop her until she is done. It was good book for young readers because it has short wording and very good illustrations. This book is good for beginning readers. It has repeated text which will help with sight recognition. This book is about a spider who is building her web while farm animals come to the spider to see if the spider wants to play with them.
“Eric Carle’s The Very Busy Spider is now available in board-book form. A contemporary classic, the simple picture storybook is about the satisfaction of working and completing a task. Readers follow a spider through the day as it creates a web. The web is actually a raised line of thin plastic that can be felt when tracing it with a finger. Carle’s signature collage illustrations, in vivid colors and varied textures, carry the story.”
