Spiro's formula for spidery success:

11% hunger to succeed (or actual hunger)

34% trying again and again ... and again!

53% giving it another shot

And 2% spider silk.

A hilarious tale of one spider's determined search for a decent meal from award winning author and illustrator Anna McGregor.

'The protagonist is Spiro, a determined little spider on a mission to catch his next meal ... his story shows young readers that success is a combination of perseverance and effort ... Spiro is a heartwarming picture book with a cheeky sense of humour and a solid message about persistence for young readers aged 3+. McGregor's illustrations and hand-lettering add vibrancy to the tale, especially with the pops of neon pink.'
-Karys McEwen, Books+Publishing

'This lively tale features colourful art and has a valuable message about never giving up!'
-Storytime

'This is a brilliant picture book which is ideal for story time and for sharing with young children. The illustrations are hilarious, and the story tells the reader how success comes from a combination of hard work, perseverance, and luck.'
-Carolyn Copland, The School Librarian
