Do you know that spiders are not insects? Insects have three body parts: head, thorax, and abdomen, with six legs growing from the thorax; however, spiders have only two body parts: cephalothorax and abdomen, and eight legs, so they cannot be classified as insects. People dislike spiders only because of their ugly appearance. Spiders not only do not harm humans but also eat harmful insects like flies and mosquitoes, so they are actually good friends to humans. This book will introduce the "wolf spider" from the family of venomous spiders, as well as the "orb-weaving spider" skilled in weaving webs. Spiders, often overlooked by humans, actually possess extraordinary abilities. Wolf spiders are mothers who would sacrifice themselves to protect their egg sacs; while orb-weaving spiders can weave webs that even humans cannot imitate. What mysterious abilities do these tiny and disgusting spiders possess? Let's explore with Mr. Fabre!
