About this series
In Slither Me Timbers, the first book in the Spyders chapter books series, spider siblings Curt, Gracey, and Thaddeus Spyder become pirates on the high seas, make a very unlikely friend, defeat the most dreaded enemy of all garden creatures, and then use science and creativity to make it safely home before dinner.
Next, in Take Your Kids to Work, they fear they will have to stay at the school with the principal again when all the other kids get to enjoy learning about the jobs their parents do. But the Spyder parents, Martha and Harold, are spies. Taking their kids to work could be dangerous! To the delight of their kids an exception is made and they do get to join their parents for a day.

Vesta L. Giles
"Working in a library and leading preschool literacy programs for over 15 years means author Vesta L. Giles has heard the Itsy Bitsy Spider about a billion times. In fact, she’s heard it so many times it inspired her to write a story about the real story of Harold, The Itsy Bitsy Spider (Hint: he’s a spy / kid and he saves the world). That story (it will be a future book) inspired her new series of chapter books called The Spyders. The Spyders are Harold’s three kids – Thaddeus, Gracey, and Curt, who are every bit as good at getting into trouble as their dad. Their Mom, Martha, is also a spy and knows a thing or two about getting out of trouble! A lover of all things creative, Vesta L. Giles is a writer and filmmaker based in Kamloops, BC, Canada. "
