This fifteenth Spid the Spider adventure will inspire children, especially budding bakers and entrepreneurs everywhere. In the story, Bid dreams of setting up her own artisan bakery though she faces numerous set-backs in turning her dream into reality. With grit, determination, and Spid’s help, she learns from the setbacks and finds a way to succeed. It’s a fun-filled story that also educates by encouraging a ‘growth mindset’. Baking is increasingly seen as a fun, creative activity that families and children can do together. This sense of involvement and creativity aligns perfectly in this latest Spid the Spider adventure. The story also aligns with the global phenomena and cultural touchstones of The Great British Bake Off (GBBO) and The Apprentice. This audiobook features two songs: ‘Dreams’ and ‘Honey Bee Cakes’. These further immerse children in the story. ‘Dreams’ is a motivational song with a ‘growth-mindset’ message; “Don’t get down, you can turn it around, your plans are sound, and you can rebound”. ‘Honeybee Cakes’ has a sunny-feel-good-calypso-Caribbean vibe, with fabulous rising harmonies. “Honey bee, honey bee, honey bee cakes”Spid is a role model for children. He’s a hard-working, cool, and funny spider, who makes mistakes, but learns from them. He helps children embrace what psychologists call a ‘growth mindset’ - a determination to better oneself and succeed. All books are supported by free parent and teacher resources to entertain and inspire children, helping them learn. These include a honeybee cake recipe and instructions to make a bee hotel.

In this winter-warming Spid the Spider adventure, Spid and friends visit the Highlands. What sets this adventure apart is its unique blend of entertainment and education for children aged 4-10 years. While delivering laughs and thrills, it also reimagines aspects of late 13th and early 14th-century Scottish history, in particular, a spidery tale involving Robert the Bruce. In the story, it is a very long way from Spider Webdon to Glenthistle. But after reading about King Robert the Spid of Glenthistle in a history book, Spid decides to visit his cousin, Hamish McSpid, who lives there. However, Spid and his friends have hardly arrived when strange things begin to happen. Of course, the fearsome monster of Loch Monroe is nothing more than a legendary beast … Or is it …? The story features two songs: ‘Hamish McSpid’ and ‘The Water King’. -‘The Ballad of Hamish McSpid’ is a folk song in the Scottish music tradition. It has a stirring violin accompaniment.-‘The Water King’ is a tub-thumping tune that celebrates and warns about the ‘guardian’ of the loch. “I am the Water King, I listen to the rain and sing, I am the king of everything, cross me and feel my sting”.

Spid decides to spend a day fly fishing with his friends, but the ferry isn’t running because of bad weather. So when a kindly stranger offers them a free ride on his big ship, Spid’s delighted. However, nothing is as it seems. And as a fog rolls in across the sea, Spid and the gang find themselves in very deep water … This audiobook features two songs: 'Sir Francis Duck' and 'The Trip'. You can also find music videos of the songs at https://spidthespider.com and https://www.youtube.com/spidthespider. Spid is a lowly spider, who wants to better himself, write songs, and marry his girlfriend Bid, though he is prone to hilarious mishaps mostly of his own making. He is hard-working, cool, and a role model for young children. As well as encouraging children to read and love books, Spid's adventures also teach valuable life lessons, including determination and what psychologists call a 'growth mindset' (desire to better oneself and succeed), the importance of friendship, and sustainability. With very creative prose, Spid's adventures are fun for parents, and teachers to read to, and with, their children. They present lots of opportunities to invest dramatic license thus helping adults and children interact and engage. The humour works at multiple levels from silly and slapstick to more sophisticated wordplay and concepts. Thus, children will discover more and enjoy reading the stories multiple times.
