Little Spider loves swinging from her web, in spite of the fact that Mum and Dad Spider warn her against it. But when swinging lands her in the soup, it's an opportunity to make new friends and do something adventurous that the whole family can enjoy! A playful story featuring Megan Brewis' distinctive voice and artwork with positive messages around breaking down all kinds of barriers (even if it does mean breaking the rules . . . and the web).
