ReviewsThis 24-page, nonfiction book about the familiar barn spider is written for reading levels 1-2 as part of Capstone's First Facts series. The author weaves introductory facts about the barn spider's characteristics and life cycle with close-up photographs. The text includes a table of contents, a glossary, an index, and lists of "Read More" resources and safe websites. Readers will also find a map showing where barn spiders live and information boxes with spider facts on several pages. This book provides basic content at the primary level. I also recommend it for differentiated classroom instruction and special education. Teachers will find the controlled vocabulary and comprehension features beneficial for students beginning independent research. It is ideal for classroom integration, as well. Many classrooms share the story of Charlotte's Web by E. B. White; students who've read it will find this book interesting since Charlotte was a barn spider! http://www.nsta.org/recommends/ViewProduct.aspx?ProductID=20489
