What better way to celebrate Eric Carle's The Very Busy Spider's 20th year in publication than to issue a Spanish-language version? This colorful, touch- and-feel story of an industrious spider is an Eric Carle classic, and now Spanish-speaking children can add it to their bookshelf of childhood's most cherished books. It's also a great tool for teaching beginning Spanish to children. A perfect companion to "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" ("La Oruga Muy Hambrienta"), this lovable, hard-working spider will spin her way into your heart, no matter what language you speak.
