'Sophie's Masterpiece: A Spider's Tale'
by Eileen Spinelli
illustrated by Jane Dyer
Sophie's no ordinary house spider. She's an artist; and
every web she spins is more wondrous than the one before.
But don't mention that to the guests at Beekman's Boardinghouse,
because they don't like spiders. No one there wants anything to do
with Sophie or her magnificent creations -- no one except the woman
on the third floor. She's a new mother 'weaving' something herself;
and when she runs out of yarn, Sophie knows the time has
finally come to create the masterpiece of a lifetime

Hi Tammie Lee, THANK YOU SO MUCH...I'm so glad you like the images I find :O)
What a joyful start of the day to be immersed in the enchantment of your posts, Sophie got me by the heart, Such beautiful illustrations and tale.
I've always loved this book. I've told the story in library story times for grade school age children. Both the illustrations and the story capture my imagination and my emotions.
It looks like such a beautiful book and a sweet story. I like the way this wonderful spider is illustrated; so often spiders are pictured as scarry..and spider is so help-and carefull. So lovely!
