Description
Skeptical readers may not think a spider could take down and eat a bird, but this volume certainly proves it. Goliath bird-eating spiders stalk their flying prey, though––despite their name––they mostly eat insects and other easier-to-hunt victims. Vivid photographs of these creepy crawlers are featured throughout the volume, as accessible text and fact boxes guide readers to knowing all about the spiders at an age-appropriate level! Although they might cause the hair on readers’ arm to rise, Goliath bird-eating spiders are harmless to humans and only bite when they’re scared.

I thought that this book was excellent!
It is only a short book but it has a lot of facts that are fun, and interesting.
The images used are great too and even though I, myself, am not a spider fan, I wasn't put off by them.
This is one of a number of books on different spider species by this author and I would definitely pick up another.
It was well laid out, clear text and quite a lot of content too.
It is 5 stars from me for this one - very highly recommended!

Another nonfiction book about big spiders. Yes, please! This is a short, excellent book, perfect for schools and budding biologists. There are tons of facts and lots of gorgeous pictures. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

Very interesting to learn about these. Gave me the creepy crawlies but my kids got the "ooo and aahhhs". Very informational, for both the kids and myself. We enjoy learning about new things and this gave my kids photos and depictions that really helped them understand.
Thank you Roxanne Aldolpho, NetGalley, and Rosen Publishing Group.
