My 4th grade students LOVE this book. Students on, above and below reading level benefit from its engaging content, alone; depends on how you plan. I look forward to using it for informational text instruction every year. It has great text features throughout, makes tier 3 vocabulary fun and easy to learn (Why say spider when you can say arachnid?!), covers the childhood history of the subject (motivation for budding scientists) and there are myriad online supports for lesson planning. Everyone seems to love this book. You'll be in good company.

Very educational, adventurous, exciting tarantula book for my neice who loves spiders, and tarantulas in particular. Beautiful color photos and pictures of a scientist in the field studying these amazing creatures in their own habitat. Great explanations of his methods as well! Great book for the little scientist!

My daughter' 4th grade class uses this book for the new common core reading program. She left it in school on the night of a homework assignment and freaked out. I decided to check for the e book version and there it was! Now she can read on the go , without any added weight to the book bag, and it is hers to keep. Very affordable as we'll.

My 5 year old and 7 year old and I read this book as we studied tarantulas. There was a great bit of information and the story telling method about the tarantula scientist kept them engaged. I am terrified of tarantulas, at least in my face, so I had my 5 year old son turn the pages! But the imagery was great, many details!

i love spiders

This book is a book full of lovely pictures, and with a beautiful lay out. It is worth buying for the great close ups pictures. But mostly I think this book is made for kids who will like to learn of the Tarantula-world. If you are an adult who seriously wants to keep Tarantulas, buy some of the other books, like The Tarantula keepers guide, and Animal Planet's, Tarantulas. And to have some fun, buy "The Lagacy of Annie Rose" by Carolyn E. Swagerle....
