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!
