Spid The Spider Goes To The Moon

Written by John Eaton

Narrated by Darren Cullum

Spid, Bid and Herman are about to blast off for an adventure on the moon. But what will they find when they get there? Is the moon really made of cheese? And does a moonster called Mr Cheezy Feet really live there?
This audiobook features two songs: 'The Cheese Song (Mr. Cheezy Feet)' and 'Queenie'. You can also find music videos of the songs at https://spidthespider.com and https://www.youtube.com/spidthespider. Spid is a lowly spider, who wants to better himself, write songs, and marry his girlfriend Bid, though he is prone to hilarious mishaps mostly of his own making. He is hard-working, cool, and a role model for young children. As well as encouraging children to read and love books, Spid's adventures also teach valuable life lessons, including determination and what psychologists call a 'growth mindset' (desire to better oneself and succeed), the importance of friendship, and sustainability. With very creative prose, Spid's adventures are fun for parents, and teachers to read to, and with, their children. They present lots of opportunities to invest dramatic licence thus helping adults and children interact and engage. The humour works at multiple levels from silly and slapstick to more sophisticated wordplay and concepts. Thus, children will discover more and enjoy reading the stories multiple times.
