Hunter the Huntsman

By Kerryn Lloyd

Hunter the Huntsman is a fun tale about Hunter, a feisty ‘kid spider’ who, “sort of listens, but not really.” The energetic plot reflects curious ‘kid thinking’ – wanting to do something which seems out of bounds. An unexpected mishap opens the door, to our brave character’s wish. Suddenly tossed into an unfamiliar adventure, our lovable little guy simply, must stay calm and resilient. A gold thread weaves anxiety and overcoming into the story and fun, furtive spider facts are spun into the journey.

Hunter the Huntsman is designed to inspire healthy awareness of our harmless arachnid friends to my audience of children 4-11, and their adult readers.
