Itsy Bitsy Spider

Description: "When the rain pours down, Itsy Bitsy Spider's water spout becomes a water slide in this nursery rhyme reimagining"--

Review Quotes: There's no shortage of versions of this nursery rhyme, but Cabrera's choice to build on the story, the themes of kindness and inclusion, and the delightful, kid-friendly art make this one special. It's a strong read-aloud option, with illustrations that will show well at a distance for classroom or library audiences--and the titular spider's so fetching that even avowed arachnophobes will change their tune. Blends appealing art with gentle rhymes for storytime magic.
