It’s winter and the holiday season is in full swing. Thaddeus Spyder is writing a long letter to his friend, Alvin the garter snake, who is hibernating with his family over the winter. Thaddeus details all of their activities, including encounters with snow, flaming clothing, fruit fly chip cookies, maple bug syrup, a great battle, a Christmas truce, and a holiday miracle nobody saw coming.
"Working in a library and leading preschool literacy programs for over 15 years means author Vesta L. Giles has heard the Itsy Bitsy Spider about a billion times. In fact, she’s heard it so many times it inspired her to write a story about the real story of Harold, The Itsy Bitsy Spider (Hint: he’s a spy / kid and he saves the world). That story (it will be a future book) inspired her new series of chapter books called The Spyders. The Spyders are Harold’s three kids – Thaddeus, Gracey, and Curt, who are every bit as good at getting into trouble as their dad. Their Mom, Martha, is also a spy and knows a thing or two about getting out of trouble! A lover of all things creative, Vesta L. Giles is a writer and filmmaker based in Kamloops, BC, Canada. "
