Spid the spider : the first five Spid the spider books

A collection of Spid's first five adventures to excite, amuse and inspire determination to succeed.

The books contain 11 songs from Spid's debut album, We're Having Fun. Spid is a lowly spider, who wants to better himself, write songs, and marry his girlfriend Bid, though he is prone to hilarious mishaps mostly of his own making.

He is hard-working, cool, and a role model for young children.

As well as encouraging children to read and love books, Spid's adventures also teach valuable life lessons, including determination and what psychologists call a 'growth mindset' (desire to better oneself and succeed), the importance of friendship, and sustainability. With very creative prose, Spid's adventures are fun for parents, and teachers to read to, and with, their children. They present lots of opportunities to invest dramatic licence thus helping adults and children interact and engage.

The humour works at multiple levels from silly and slapstick to more sophisticated wordplay and concepts.

Thus, children will discover more and enjoy reading the stories time and time again. Each of the books contains at least 2 songs together with QR codes that allow readers to listen to musical versions of the songs.
