Ever
since we moved into the Begonia House, my little sister, Margo, has become
obsessed with spiders. Instead of being afraid, she thinks they're cute. Of course, during our library visit she had to pick out a book about
her new favorite creature.
In I’m Trying to Love Spiders by Bethany Barton, the narrator learns all kinds of interesting facts on their quest to love spiders. Not only will you be entertained, but you will learn cool information about spiders that may help them grow on you, if you’re not already a fan. I was shocked by how many pounds of bugs they eat a year! If you don’t like bugs, then spiders are actually your friend. It’s also important to know that most spiders aren’t poisonous, so many of the ones we see can’t hurt us. The humor had us chucking and hoping for another book by this author!

I think it's awesome that a picture book taught
me so much about these arachnids. I definitely appreciate them more than I did before. The
illustrations are fun-filled with details that help reinforce the facts. This
book will make you like spiders a little more, if you don’t already.
Has
anyone else read I’m Trying to Love
Spiders Or have you read another book by Bethany Barton? Do you like spiders? We'd love to hear your thoughts!
