Spider Book Picks

Here are 3 of my favorite spider books:

#1. The Very Busy Spider by Eric Carle
This is a great book for kids with special needs because it's repetitious. It also has a "lift the flap" feature which is entertaining. It is a little long for my son so we match farm animals that we have to the animals on the pages to keep him engaged.



#2. There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly by Pam Adams
This book has holes in the pages which you can look at the animals through. Although a spider isn't the main character, it's fun to have your child find the spider every time it's mentioned.



#3. The Itsy Bitsy Spider by Iza Trapani
This book is a song that you can sing to the tune of the familiar song it names. It is long for my son so we take a plastic spider and he "finds" the little spider on each page.



You should be able to find these 3 gems in your local library.
