Synopsis:
Drawn in the visual style of films from the twenties and thirties, the black and white illustrations shimmer like images out of a silent film. The spider, dressed to the nines and looking like the late Raul Julia, resides in a Victorian Doll House. A lovely dragonfly, dressed flapper style, approaches his abode.

*Note: These craft ideas are just suggestions.
You can use them, but you don't have to use them.
You can expand upon them, or add your own twist.
Remember, though, that the focus of your time should
not be on the development and execution of a craft;
the focus should be on the read-aloud and the
enjoyment of the book!
