The Very Busy Spider (Step-into-Reading, Lvl 2)

Ages 4 to 6, Grades P to 1

A spider, blown by the wind to a fence post near a farm yard, begins to build her web and cannot be distracted from the task at hand—not by the horse, cow, sheep, goat, or dog. But when the rooster asks if she wants to catch a pesky fly, the busy spider is able to catch it in her web immediately!
