This is a great book and series, so read it!Support the authors!HOWEVER:This has a picture of a bunch of tarantulas(well, a illustration of them) so if you have aracnophobia, then be cautious!But other than that, it is excellent!

This is in a classroom reading library.The students love learning about every day people. This is one of many and have proven to bea very popular non fiction book. Getting kids to enjoy non fiction is often challenging. Highly recommend these books.Steven and the pic of the shark was a big hit!
