| Publisher Description: A spider on a quest to drop the "Bitzy" and become "just Itzy" runs up against some challenges--and a few familiar nursery-rhyme characters. Itzy the spider is tired of being called "Itzy Bitzy." On his first day of spindergarten, Itzy decides to prove to everyone that he's a big spider by catching his own lunch. But spinning a web is hard work, and every time Itzy gets close to catching a fly, something gets in the way--whether it's a girl sitting on a tuffet, an old lady swallowing everything in sight, or a dangerous waterspout. Will Itzy ever get a chance to prove himself and shake his pesky nickname? Illustrated in bold vignettes by Geisel Award winner Greg Pizzoli, Itzy's amusing adventures are a clever balm for the frustrations of preschoolers fed up with being too little. |
