Teacher Comments: [2023] Honestly, I didn't care for it. I didn't like the illustrations nor the last part of the book where the little boy was lying on the floor with so many spiders climbing all over him. I know this book is meant to be humorous; however, I didn't like it. | [2023] It's a text that lends itself to self-discovery. It opens the doors for children to explore their likes and dislikes and to be truly honest with themselves.
