“When I read the book Spiders Dance to Hailey, my little six year old kindergarten student, she was very engaged in the story and performed the activities that ‘people are able to do.’
Hailey’s concern for Spider’s plight increased as the book progressed and she asked ‘will Spider ever be able to dance?’ Delight and relief for Spider was evident as we discovered that Spider in fact did have ‘rhythm and balance,’ and that he COULD DANCE!
This little kindergartner said, as we began the book, that ‘spiders give her the creeps.’ By the end of the book, she agreed that this spider was very cute and perhaps she will look at spiders in a different way in the future.” Susan Hatch
