4.0 out of 5 stars Series Intro for Younger Readers, December 30, 2006

This review is from: Miss Spider: Miss Spider's Family Album (Board book)

"Miss Spider's Family Album" is a basic intro to Miss Spider and her family for younger fans of the series. It's a good book, but a bit simplistic and may not appeal much to somewhat older fans of the series.

The book has tabs at the top, each featuring one or two characters from the show. Each set of two pages includes one full-page illustration and one illustration accompanied by a single sentence of text from Miss Spider, describing the character(s). Some are more interesting than others --- Wiggle is designated as "the artist in the family," while Pansy and Snowdrop are "my twins."

I'd say readers will probably get more out of the expressive illustrations in this book than the text. If you enjoy looking at David Kirk's "Miss Spider" illustrations, then you will probably like this.
