Review by School Library Journal Review

PreS-Here's another expanded version of what happens to that adventurous arachnid when he's finished with the waterspout. A variety of farm animals becomes involved with the acrobatic spider as he gets tossed from snout to tail to wing while making his high-flying way home. The song/finger play stumbles a bit with an uneven tempo and words that should rhyme but don't, such as farm/barn and funny/mommy. Bright, cheerful illustrations are the highlight of this bumpy verse. Flying insects, animal sounds, and the tangible silver glitter of the spider's silk fill the pages. Stick with Mary Ann Hoberman's adaptation of The Eensy-Weensy Spider (Little, Brown, 2000) for a more polished story of the escapades of this indomitable eight-legged critter.-Maryann H.
