THE GUARDIAN "[...] gorgeous illustration [...] intricate monochrome [...] acid-bright touches of colour [...] will prompt lively discussion." It fell from the sky on a Thursday.

Spider builds a wonderous display so that insects from far and wide can come to look at the marvel. Spider has their best interests at heart. So what if he has to charge a small fee? So what if the lines are long? But as Spider raises the prices, insects stop showing up, much to Spider's bemusement. And then, all of a sudden, an unexpected disaster hits and the marvel disappears! This charming story is accompanied by characterful illustrations, and also teaches children important life lessons about greed and the importance of sharing.
