Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Most people know that spiders have eight legs, and that they spin intricate webs. However, many people don't know that many spiders can smell with their legs, or that spiders make different kinds of silk depending on the job it's used for. They also come in many shapes and sizes. The smallest can sit on the head of a pin, while the biggest would fill up a dinner plate. Numerous stunning photographs of many kinds of spiders in the wild are sure to delight readers while fun facts keep them engaged.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 31) and index.
