Deadly Spider Bite interweaves stories of humans' encounters with poisonous spiders with facts and general information about dangerous spiders. The narrative stories draw the young readers into this nonfiction book and lead them into finding out more about some of the most deadly spiders in the world. The vivid close-ups of spiders and the results of their bites will captivate any young reader. The text is ideal for its target audience of eight to eleven year olds. Children gravitate to scary at this age, and this book will shoot to the top of the most-checked-out books in the library because of the element of scariness. The book will also satisfy the strictest of teachers and librarians, by its inclusion of all the classic nonfiction elements as well.
