Annotation: The spider goes on an adventure for the perfect place to spin its web.

Reflection: The Itsy Bitsy Spider is a sing along tale about the adventures of the daily life of a spider.  The catchy tune, as well as the repetitive nature of the story, keep the children engaged during story time and promotes memory retention.  In each stanza, the second and fourth lines rhyme, creating an easy rhythm that also draws in children’s attention in.  This book also has mostly full page, colorful drawings that make it nearly irresistible to look away from.
