Out of stock at Bookroo right now. Also at Bookshop.
Little Miss Spider can hardly wait for her first day at Sunny Patch School. But the lessons all bugs ought to know, from dung digging to leaf drilling, stinging and flying, are too hard for her. As the day ends she wonders whether there is anything she can do well. The answer turns out to be the best lesson of all.
Sunny Patch School Was the best place to go to study the lessons all bugs ought to know. When the first day of school arrives, Little Miss Spider is almost beside herself with excitement. She gobbles her breakfast (“a fresh flower plate”) and runs all the way to Sunny Patch School. But poor Miss Spider is in for a day of frustration. She can’t seem to master the new lessons: dung digging, leaf drilling, stinging, or flying. As the day draws to a close, Miss Spider bemoans her lack of skills. Isn’t there anything she can do well? We are all soon to find out…
