Synopsis
Sophie is an artist who wants to spin beautiful creations all day long and, someday, a masterpiece. As a spider, though, Sophie has a hard time finding a welcoming place in which she can be free to live and spin. She's shooed and shuffled all over Beekman's Boardinghouse until one day she finally finds the warm, comfortable, safe home for which she always yearned — and the inspiration for the masterpiece of her lifetime.
Publishers Weekly
A tender-hearted arachnid-shown here as a blond with a human face, two arms and six colorfully stockinged legs-weaves a work of art for a grateful mother-to-be. "Spinelli and Dyer's tale of devotion and generosity is as delicately woven as Sophie's own work," wrote PW. Ages 4-7. (May) Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
