5.0 out of 5 stars A Lyrical Bedtime Story that Helps Ease Night Time Fears, November 7, 2006

This review is from: The Listening Walk (Miss Spider) (Hardcover)

The Listening Walk is a bedtime story written especially for children who have fears of the dark and are made uneasy by sounds they hear at night. Miss Spider, from the popular TV series, Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends, takes her son, Wiggle, on a night walk outside. She shows him that the things that seem scary to him, really are not that scary at all.

David Kirk's soothing rhythmic verse and vivid digital illustrations make this an excellent bedtime story, even for kids who are not afraid of the dark.

My two-year-old son really likes this book. He asks me to read it nearly every night.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Listening Walk (Miss Spider) (Hardcover)

My grandson is totally in love with Miss Spider Books. He carries them around with him all the time. When his dad tells him to get a book to read at bedtime (or anytime) he ALWAYS gets one of his Miss Spider Books.
