Itsy Bitsy Spider

There s no shortage of versions of this nursery rhyme, but Cabrera s choice to build on the story, the themes of kindness and inclusion, and the delightful, kid-friendly art make this one special. It s a strong read-aloud option, with illustrations that will show well at a distance for classroom or library audiences and the titular spider s so fetching that even avowed arachnophobes will change their tune. Blends appealing art with gentle rhymes for storytime magic.
