Spid’s latest adventure is about recognising and taking charge of your feelings. And inspiring resolutions for the year ahead. It’s New Year’s Eve and the last thing Spid wants to do is celebrate. Now Spidmas is over, he feels unloved and unappreciated. But just as Spid is thinking he’ll never make anything of himself, Bid comes up with an idea that changes everything.
"My favourite part of the story is the presents that Spid got for his friends and family which match their hobbies and personalities perfectly. Herman would get a bird feeder to keep the crows away, Cleverly Evaleigh would get a book as she’s very clever and Spiddyman outfits for Stidley and Ridley! I also love the unusual snacks that Spid the spider likes to each which sounds yucky and hilarious. Spid loves a moth latte, crunchy cricket sandwiches, grasshopper granola, an insect roast, butterfly biscuits, minced-fly pies, spider cider and mosquito dessert!
Why I rated it 5 stars: I have to admit ‘Spid the spider’ audio's are some of my favourite children’s bed time listening! (Spid the spider gets spooked at Halloween, Spid the spider helps out at Christmas and Spid the spider welcomes in the new year). They have everything you’d want in a story for my children including animals, a theme, problems & solutions, humour both for children and adults, a variety of characters, interesting facts as well! In this Spid story, the characters are Father Spidmas, Dollop the reindeer, Spid’s girlfriend Bid, Pistachio, Nutty and more! A perfect story for December or all year round! An amazing addition is ‘A far away spidmas wish’ and ‘Spidmas day’ songs which you can listen to as the story grows! I’m sure children will love the change of words as did I, that the narrator has cleverly put his own spin on - Spundays, spidtastic, spidnight and spidmas. Excellent fun to read to, or with my children!
