Synopsis In collage artist Eric Carle's charming book for very young children, a diligent spider resists the temptation to take a break from spinning her web. A cow, an owl, and other animals offer some playtime, but the spider keeps at her web until it's beautifully finished. With gorgeous, vivid illustrations.
The farm animals try to divert a busy little spider from spinning her web, but she persists and produces a thing of both beauty and usefulness. The pictures may be felt as well as seen.
