About the author

David Kirk is the creator of children's books that follow the character Miss Spider. Before writing books, he made colorful toys that were sold in hand-painted boxes. He was urged to write children's books when his toys caught the interest of a book packager. It wasn't difficult to figure out what he would use as characters in his stories: his daughter, Violet, had a liking for bugs.

Reviews

[Dolly · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a cute book about a "hatchday" party celebration that is dampened by rain. Leave it to Miss Spider and her kids to see the silver lining. Cute book to read aloud and it is very much like the series on television.
