Do you know what's lurking in your backyard, hiding in your garage, or hanging above your bed at night?

Spiders for Kids takes you face-to-face with 25 of the most extraordinary spiders on Earth - from the deadliest to the most beautiful, from the tiniest dancer to the one that lives underwater in its own air bubble.

This isn't just a book of facts. Each spider gets its own full chapter with:

• Stunning full-color photographs of every species
• How to identify it in real life - the markings, shapes, and behaviors to look for
• Hunting secrets - how each spider catches its prey
• A Danger Rating so you know exactly how worried to be if you find one
• Amazing facts that will surprise even the most spider-obsessed kids

Meet the Peacock Spider that dances for its life, the Goliath Birdeater with fangs the size of your fingernail, the Spitting Spider that never even touches its prey, and the Sydney Funnel-web - the spider doctors call the most dangerous on Earth.

Whether you love spiders or fear them, this book will change how you see the eight-legged world hiding all around you.

Perfect for curious kids ages 7-12.
