DESCRIPTION:
Stories for Children Magazine 5 Star Review VS Grenier Amazon Customer REVIEWED BY: Wayne S. Walker, reviewer with Stories for Children MagazineIt is Josh Shapiro's first day of preschool. Sammy Spider, who lives with his family in the Shapiros' house, wants to go with Josh. Mrs. Spider says that Sammy is silly because spiders don't go to school. However, Sammy sneaks into Josh's backpack. Sammy gets to listen to a story about Noah's ark, hear the children tell about their pets, and watch them as they learn about kindness to animals. He does not go outside with the children . Sammy Spider's First Day of School Jewish Book World Magazine The ever curious Sammy Spider, starring in his eleventh title, drops down from the ceiling, where he lives in a web with his mother, and hitches a ride to Jewish preschool in Josh's backpack. "Boker Tov! Good morning!" says the teacher, who uses the story of Noah's Ark to engage the children in a discussion about "an important Jewish value"--kindness to animals. But when the little spider is discovered, a child wants to step on him. Josh picks Sammy up, shows his classmates there's nothing to be afraid of. Great Book Shyanne What Jewish kid doesn't love Sammy the Spider. I bought the whole collection for my son. He loves them so much.
