The Very Busy Spider by Eric Carle
By Puffin Books
One of Eric Carle's most popular books- The Very Busy Spider is a story of a spider, blown by the wind to a fence post near a farm yard.
She begins to build her web and cannot be distracted from the task at hand — not by the horse, cow, sheep, goat, or dog. But when the rooster asks if she wants to catch a pesky fly, the busy spider is able to catch it in her web immediately!
With the visual excitement of Eric Carle's vibrant collages of familiar animals is the tactile experience of feeling the spider's web as it grows from a simple line into a complex and beautiful creation — a perfect story for reading aloud and sharing.
